When we were kids I looked up to you... why shouldn't I? You had an invisible dog named Spot.. one smooth dance move... and could make anybody laugh by saying something so witty and unexpected (and yes I do deserve a doggy bistit) that your sayings make me smile through the tears. We grew up at a special time, when we all were more like brothers and sisters than cousins. I don't remember a time you were not there teaching me things you probably shouldn't, keeping me safe at Ft Clark or showing me around Jville. I will miss you Wade the Blade... my hero.. my cousin...my brother my friend.
