wow! IT'S BEEN 10 MONTHS SINCE I LAID EYES ON MY BROTHER...I COULDN'T HAVE IMAGINED ME MAKING IT THIS FAR. I THOUGHT I LOST MY OWN LIFE THE DAY MY BROTHER DIED. YOU SOMETIMES LOOK AROUND FOR A BIG BROTHER JUST FOR COMFORT & FIND OUT ALL YOU HAVE IS GOD:) HE IS THE ONLY WAY I GOT THROUGH THE HURT AND THE SADNESS..I WOULDN'T WISH THIS FEELING ON ANY FAMILY AT ANY TIME. BUT MY MOM ALWAYS SAID "IF YOU LIVE LONG ENOUGH" YOU WILL WITNESS MANY THINGS. I KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE STORMS NOW ITS UP TO US WHO WE TURN TO WHEN YOUR LIFE IS TURNED UPSIDE DOWN IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE. I LOVE AND MISS MY BIG BROTHER TERRIBLY, THERE AREN'T MANY MEN LIKE HIM AROUND. HE WAS A GOOD FATHER AND PROVIDER..AND A GREAT BROTHER. HE ALWAYS CAME WHEN I CALLED. THANK YOU FOR BEING A BROTHER AND FRIEND. YOU WERE MY BLOOD AND FOREVER WILL BE.

Yea, thou I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, i will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me........
Although this is was God's will, it still sometimes tends to put us into that valley that is spoken about in the 23rd Psalm. But remember joy will come in the morning. It may be a while before this becomes a true reality to you; but for Rydell to be absent from his body, be joyous to know that he is present with the Lord.
As you go through this valley that seems to be so dark and so lonely just think back to how you made it to this very day. Just in knowing that it would bring you to reality that God will bring you through each and everyday there after.
My condolences to the family,
