Thank you Marty for noticing my sister. You really changed her life. You brought her so much of everything she needed and deserved. You loved and supported her encouraged and fought for her. You helped her achieve great things and celebrated life with her. Together you brought up beautiful, talented, intelligent, kind and precious children. I have many wonderful memories to keep. The best 2/14/1990 that icy Valentines day when you entered the covenant of marriage with my sister and became my brother. I love everything you and will always miss you.
