I miss you big brother and I think of you often. The other day I was listening to Buster Poindexter's Hot Hot Hot and it reminded me of our Disney World trip when we sang our heart's out on the airplane and I couldn't suppress my laughter. Rest in Paradise. I'll see you on the other side. Love, Danyerelli
