Not sure what to say?

My cousin, my friend! Closest in age to me, we had a blast playing together when we were young. As adults our outings were always fun filled. If you wanted to know the history of anything just call Jimmy, memory like a steel trap! I was so proud to introduce you to my friends. After Jim and Mary Ellen passed, I always had a seat for you at my Thanksgiving table. I'm happy to have spent your birthday with you this year. Love you Jimmy, I'll really miss you.
