I was just a child living in Salt Lake when my cousin Dick would play practical jokes on me. I was so gullible, but he knew I still considered him one of my favorite "guy" cousins. He brought me back a doll when he was in the Navy and I still have that doll to this day. I treasure all the memories we have had over the years and I will miss him so much.
