I am still trying to wrap my mind around the fact that you are no longer here. Not in flesh anyway because you will forever be in my heart. You were such a blessing and I know for a fact that you will be missed by many. I am praying for your kids and all the rest of the family you left here to grieve. It makes it a little easier knowing that your Mom, Dad and Grandma were waiting for you at the gates with open arms. I will love you forever my sweet nephew. Your beautiful smile and that ray of light that radiated from the inside out will shine forever. I'll see you again someday.

It seems like yesterday that we were working side by side in slitting. Hearing of your passing was like a punch in my throat. You were always so genuinely sweet and polite. I always knew it was going to be a good day whenever you were beside me. We could at least laugh about how bad of a day we were having. I just can’t imagine this world without your smiling face. Rest easy, Thad.
