I know you would want me to right a poem, but the words won't come right now and my heart is not in the right place. i will have one here with your picture when i can say the right words. we have been each other's rock for alot of years and i know i will start thinking before i speak like you would want me to. i thank you for all the support you have given me and the love you have given all that have become your adopted family. may you rest in peace and never be forgotten.
