`I now know what it means to miss the opportunity to tell someone how much you Loved and Respected them. Forgive me my brother and the father-figure, I always had to make me laugh when I was down and to always unselfishly take the time to give me the knowledge and self-confidence I always desired in all aspects of my life.They'll know you when you reach the gates on that majestic horse. Ride above the clouds for eternity... I love you always and I will never forget you.
