Sparky was the kind of brother that would take this fish off your hook for you, make you laugh till your face hurt, challenge your mind, a protector when things went bumb in the night. I was very lucky to have him as a brother and I will miss him terribly. God's people never say goodbye, I am glad I will see Sparky again.
