I miss you still, i always will. I have wote and deleted so many times, I am sure I will many more. You were my rock in so many of my failures but you never made me feel like I failed. You lushed or helped me push to see who I could be. I could sure use you and your support a million times over.

Jim, you were my best friend and I am having a very hard time not having you to talk to about certain things that only you could help me get on with. I miss all the private converstions we had. I wish that I could see your face just one more time and let you know how much you meant to me and loved you. You will always be in my heart and daily memories. A day does not go by without thinking about you and wishing that I could have been a bigger help for you in the end.
There are still a lot of things that we needed to do together. I will always do the best I can for Jimi, Kathy and Robby for a long I can. I will always miss you and love you.

My baby brother, my only brother. Your time with us was much too short. Now we must keep you with us with our memories. Our time together was important but unfortunately but not often enough. We had some special times over the years and I will hold those near.

I will never, ever forget the times we shared. And I am the luckiest kid in the world to have gotten you for a dad. And even though you could never stay awake through an entire movie, I would say that was my favorite memory. I miss you and love you so much.

I guess I'm supposed to put a favorite memory here, but the truth is I can't think of just one. You loved everyone so much, and we love you too. I cherish all the memories I have of you. The ones I think about the most are of all the fun we used to have when we visited you in the summer. And how you would never watch an entire movie with us. You would always watch the first 20 minutes and then fall asleep, then you would wake up to see the last 10 minutes. I wish I could watch just one more movie with you. I love you Dad. I'll always be your little girl.

I will never forget your smile or your eyes, but especially I will never forget your stutter. It always brought a smile to me and I only wish I could hear it again.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
