You were my brother & you are missed, dearly. I know we grew apart but everytime we met in the streets it was all love. I still haven't accepted losing you, but I'll always love you. Peace

It's doesn't seem like 15 years ago that you were taken from us, yes the pain is still there, but I have learned over the years that I have too much to be grateful for to allow your death to overpower my joy, it's today that I have peace in my soul and I truly celebrate your life!
