I am glad that you have gone on to a better place, but I am also selfish and will miss you. You were a wonderful uncle and you were really the only one I had. I will always treasure the time that I got to spend with you. I have enjoyed the yearly visits and the extra ones that I got last year with you. Most of all I am so glad that I came and saw you this year when I did cause I know that it meant more to me to see you while you were still here, then once you were gone and I am sure that it meant a lot to you also. The kids had many nice things to say about you and about the time that they all spent with you and it makes me smile to know that you made such a wonderful impact on them. They love you and will miss you also. God Bless and Rest in Peace.
