I loved my uncle very much and he was one of the greatest people I ever knew. I was so honored to be a part of his family and honored to be able to be apart of his life. My uncle's death is a horrible loss to everyone who knew him, and I do not think anyone will ever get over the pain of this horrific loss. I hope one of the greatest men that I ever known is in a better place and that he knows that all of his family and friends will love him forever.
