My beautiful Unk. I was so very blessed to get every second of time I got with you. I didn't just loose my uncle or one of the favorite men, I felt like I've lost my best friend here in the last 8 months. It's feels so empty without your smile. I will cherish the bond we formed on this earth forever. Until we meet again, Brandi (Hayes).
