The last memory I have of him was of him waving to me and squeezing my hand 3 times to tell me he loved me - and Ill never forget it.

Im so sorry you had to say goodbye too soon. I hope the memories you have with him will bring you more smiles than tears in the days and weeks and years to come.

I love you Cousins -
