I don´t have a single childhood memory you weren´t there for. I will forever cherish your gentle and sweet spirit. I only wish we had more time and more memories to make together. You have always been one of my favorite people in this entire world. I love you and will miss you more than these words could ever explain. May your precious soul rest eternally in peace.
