I didn't have a chance to know you cousin, but the hurt in your Fathers eyes told the story of the young man you were to him and many who knew you. God speed and enjoy the flight with your new set of wings. This earth could not hold you bound. Your life had a purpose and I hope those closest to you finds peace in the light that your life radiated in their life. Love, Tomika
