A wonderful husband and friend to my big sister and the best dad and grandpa a kid could ever hope to have to all my nieces, and nephews. When you married my big sister you became one of my big brothers; not just a brother in-law.
I've always thought a lot of you and appreciate all that you have done for me through out my life,and you made a difference in my life for the better.
I wish you didn't have to go; I love you, and you will not be forgotten.
My heart, and mind is full of memories shared with you; you will remain my big brother, and there are no good-byes, because where ever we are, you'll always be in my heart.

I know you are another angel watching over all of us from above, and we will joke, and laugh together again some day.

I love you, Audrey
