I will forever hold here, my many memories but I think the ones that I treasure, the most, or the nights spin in your living room with me you and Tammy, talking telling stories and listening to your laugh I feel forever blessed to be part of your extended family. Fly high with the angels and dance with you and Russell. I will love and miss you forever your other daughter.
