I have lost a wonderful brother, we became very close this past year and I am going to miss him alot. I am so thankful that he met Susan and they got married. They were perfect for each other. I am so thankful for Susan and her daughters for all that they did for my brother. I know that now he is not in pain and he has a heart that is 100% strong. I know our mom and dad was there to greet him with open arms and I know someday I will see him again. Until that day I will miss him and keep him in my heart. I know my big brother will be watching over me from above.
