It's a little over 2 years and I am still waiting for you to burst through the door and ask who touched my prized possessions? There isn't a second throughout the day that I don't think about you, want to tell you something or just hear your voice again.... I am definitely broken and lost without you here. Love You. Be Safe. Think Smart.

We are at a loss for words,and our hearts are heavy and broken to say the least. That young man my little cousin was nothing but kind everytime we would talk and he had nice hair which I was always envious of . You guys raised a hardworking, loving young man and even though his life has been cut way to short the happiness and joy from the time we got to spend with him will always be locked away in a special place in our hearts that only few get to touch. Michael, Wendy, Alyssa, Uncle Ron and Aunt Ev we love you even though we may not say it enough! Little cuz keep on spreading that infectious smile keep on keeping on!
