Linus, (Cuz)
I will miss you and never forget the times we shared together as children. Its unfortunate that adulthood placed heavy demands on our lives, and we drifted apart. However I will always have the memories of two happy and sometimes mischeivous young boys growing up as cousins. Thanks for the memories. God bless your soul.

Forever,
Your cousin
(and partner in crime),
Eddie Medley
