I don't even know where to even begin... you were always smiling and had the most amazing outgoing personality that one can wish for. You were not only your moms big baby but you were all of our big babies. I always felt like it was my job to protect you from harms way and I feel as if I failed, even though in the end you made it to where we all one day wish to be. It hurt that your not here with us anymore but I know you had to go do another job up above... so fly high and I thank you on behalf of myself and everyone else lives that you touched and had an impact on.
Love always,
Your big cousin!!!
