Timmy, I loved how you would be laughing and I would ask what is so funny? You would say you were thinking about a SpongeBob episode or GTA scene. I also remember how you cracked up at uncles version of "let it be" song to " let me pee", as we were on a long drive home. You were the best Timmy. I love you always
