Not sure what to say?

Hey Duane. I thought I saw you the other day. Then I remembered that I couldn't have... I haven't seen you since we were children, but some of my most cherished memories are with you. I'll never forget you, cousin.

Dear cousin - unfortunately, as adults we were never able to connect. a few phone calls and Facebook. I'm sad about that. As children, you were my best friend, my partner in crime. I think of you often and miss you dearly.

I love and miss you every day my dear brother. Please take care of my baby girl (Rowan) in heaven. Until we meet again. Much love to you, the best big brother EVER!!


Dear Andrew,
Everyone misses you sooooo much, you were alwys one in a million, happy, a wonderful father, awsome nephew,you were taken from us way to soon. Rest In Peace baby.

Love Aunt Pauline.

I just learned of the loss of my dear cousin. We were very close as children. Time drifted us a part. I can't believe you are gone...

Andrew,
You've been lost so soon and have left many aching hearts missing you. May your beautiful spirit be relishing in the aroma of a decadent Keema or on hunt for the best mushrooms for a gourmet stew- somewhere over the rainbow...

You are missed but never forgotten...

Rest In Power,
Layla

I am so sorry for the loss of your son, brother, uncle. Linda, Laini, and Rowan my prayers are out there for all of you during this sad and trying time.

Andrew was my sweet loving warm kind & loveable nephew, when I was at his mother's house, Andrew would come over to help Linda with a meal, when he walked in the door, I'd walk up to him & say..."I LOVE YOU SO MUCH", & he'd say to me..."I LOVE YOU MORE"...
Here's something else Andrew & I would say to each other..."I'd say to him..."YOU'RE MY FAVORITE NEPHEW...& he'd say..."YOU'RE MY FAVORITE AUNT"...
I'll truely miss Andrew, he was & always will be a very special man in my life, it...

I know his sister. I just wanna say I'm so sorry.
