My dear brother! Not sure where to start and trying to search for the right words to say but I'm literally lost for words. You were the best brother-in-law and uncle. A funny, out going and lovable person. My heart is truly broken and though I know it's selfish of me but I'm not coming to terms yet with your passing. I know the Lord doesn't make mistakes but it's hard to accept you being gone. No more dance contest, laughing, hanging out or venting. It's always the small things that has mattered most to you which is what I appreciated most. Don't worry, I'll take care of Isaiah and will be here for Yosha and Di'Jon as long as there's breath in my lungs. You will be truly missed, I tell you all about what took place since your untimely departure when I see you again. Cocoa
