I love you my precious nephew. You mean the world to me. You was the second boy born when so many girls was being born. I always been so proud of you. I loved your smile, your joking ways especially with your cousin. You was good with everything that you did. I am really going to miss you here on earth but I know that there will be a time when I will see you again. Fly high my dearest nephew. I know that you, your grandma , uncle and your cousin are celebrating with joy. They are standing in line in welcoming you home. You are at peace now fly high. You are with your heavenly father now. Love you R I H
