Brother David, you are being missed so very much. Not a day goes by that I don't think about things we did together. We fished together and hunted together. You remember the time when the game warrant arrested you because you were one year to young to be fishing with me. I could hunt alone but I could not have you close by. Dads had to go to the county sheriff to pick you up and pay your fine.

David, do you remember the time when you accidently set fire to Grandpa's shed? You were trying to hide smoking and started a fire. You ran up to the house, your pants in your hand - you were trying to put out the fire by hitting it with your pants.
