Miss you bud... Its been 8 whole years now and it still feels like yesterday that I got the news. Its weird going on without you, I know you would have done big things. You were always smiling even in the darkest times, and still managed to put everyone before yourself.
RIP Brother

It's been a year, but the hurt and loss is still with us. Coty was such a special person, and loving and giving even as a child. His smile could warm the hardest heart. He is smiling for God now, but we remember him with love a year later. Rest high on that mountain and know you are remembered.
