To my Uncle, like a brother to me. A sweet and quiet young man. Life had dealt him some bad things, but I never once heard him complain against them. I believe he is with his Heavenly Father now, the one who is always good, and always kind, and loves no matter what......... Rest in Peace..."Glenny"
