When I think back on all the memories I have of you, every single one includes your bright and brilliant smile.

You were my oldest male cousin and were a fierce and loving protector of all of us. I was always so impressed with your kindness, your love, your athleticism, your warmth, and your radiance. The love you had for your family was so evident and I loved watching your videos of you and Erica and the boys laughing and living a life with love.

I will miss you dearly, but I find some comfort knowing that Pop Pop was there to greet you lovingly with a great big bear hug.

Love you forever and always big cousin. Thank you for inspiring us to be kind and loving and wonderful like you.
