JR

You are someone that made a difference in my life, you treated me with loving respect. You teased my kids (smiling) and my son always looked up to you (slim). I will miss you very much and I will miss the messed up hair that I picture everyday in my thoughts. Even though it was your time to leave us, we still wanted you here. You were tired Brother.. we understand.
Love, Bonnie.. Mandy.. Josh.
