To this day,it still does not feel real. I never got to say goodbye,I never got to tell you that you truly are the best brother a sister could ever ask for. I never got to hold you one last time. I love you so much. I find myself crying out of nowhere at the thought of you. Everything is so different without you. I hope you found the path in heaven you wanted to persue. Im not religious..but you make me believe theres someone higher out there. I know your looking over dad and I. We love you Thomas. Our CAPTAIN AMAERICA

I am sorry to hear of the lost of one so young. As life is just really beginning, it ends. May you be comforted by your memories and love for Thomas, and knowing that others feel your sorrow and pain.

So sorry for your lost. My your family allow you to talk when the need arises and be quiet when that need arises as well. Our Lord and Savior Jesus knew how to do that perfectly as stated in 2 Chronicles 6:29 where it states " Each one has his own pain and his own plaque".
From someone who has lost as well.
