Today is the 30th Anniversary of the Day that changed my life forever; the day that broke the hearts of our family and I don't even know what to say anymore. The world has kept on spinning.....kept on changing in ways that make this day even harder because "Lady Justice" has been blind-folded, handcuffed, and shackled by the greed of political careers and politicians.
My heart cannot forgive the added heartache and pain for so many victims and their families that have been inflicted by those who have no skin in this game other than their own political gain.

The only thing that has remained constant, true, and steadfast is all the love that lives in the hearts of your family. We love you and miss you each and every day.......the love and memories that you left with each of us continues grow in our hearts. You are a part of each day in my life.....a part of each breath and heartbeat.....a part of the person I strive to be on this earth. I love and miss you each and every day, Big Brother.

Love always
Your Baby Sister
