You were what I call my ride or die $&@-)$ and your gone now, I don't think anyone will ever measure up to you. I think of you daily, I love you so much and that will always be with me.
I am thankful that I was loved by you and no one can take that away. I miss you so much.

This is the first time I have had the strength to do this. I miss you more than I ever thought possible. Cooper and Shaun miss you tremendously, we have a life time of memories together. You always tried to protect me, shelter me after dad was gone. I love you more than you will ever know. See you sometime again.

I guess the ufo we saw that day we must have seen for a reason. That is all I can come up with for that strange occurrence on the day of 08/31/2013,your last day with us. I'm so sorry we never made that last fishing trip and I will regret it for a long time to come. I still have to take Tammy to the movies like I promised you,but I'm going to get right on that just as soon as I am done looking after your mom. I have so much to say but I'll save it for the day. Happy Birthday Bro you may be gone but you will never be forgotten. See You In Time!
