Brothers Forever
Dear Fred you were a great big brother throughout my life. I will forever miss you and feel a great void in my heart. When we were young I looked up to and you protected me from the neighborhood hoodlums. You taught me how to tie my shoes and how to fight and stick up for myself. I followed you around all the time even thou you didn’t want me to. We always enjoyed each other’s company and had a lot of laughs even up to the last time we talked and texted each other. I was always proud of you...
