As it has been exactly one year since the passing of my uncle bill, i still think of him every day and become saddened at the memories i shared with him. I still remember his infectious smile and his loud loving laugh that could make anyone happy. On this day i still carry some of the small things he had given me for good luck, and it feels as if a peice of him is still with me. I am terribly saddened today as i think that my best friend uncle bill was not here to witness some of my greatest accomplished but i still talk to him every single night for the past year in my prayers.
