You were the big brother I never had… Your dear sister was my best friend, your dad was not only my favorite teacher-but a mentor and someone who truly believed in me. Losing you will always hurt. I’m sure the reunion with your parents & Bo was beautiful. Thank you for putting up with me and treating me like a little sister
