1. David is the most kindest and wonderful young man.  He loves God and loves to help people.  He loves playing canasta with my mom and my brothers, Ricky Blakney and Denny Blakney whom left us two years ago. We had so much fun with him.  I am going to miss him so much. David, I Love You. 

I am going to miss you, little brother! I am so sorry for all of the pain and brokenness you have felt throughout your life. As your big sister, I wish I had done a better job protecting you and being there for you. 

One of my favorite memories of you is when we used to sit on the floor and play He-Man and Skelator. Of course, I was She-Ra. I also remember the time I was a self-righteous teenager when my bratty little brother took the front seat of Mom's car when we were about to leave Grandma and Grandpa's house one day. I was yelling at you to get in the back seat and give me the front seat as that was supposed to be mine since I was the oldest. At least in my mind 16 yr old mind that was completely logical. We both got into this fighting match and when you would not do as I wanted, I slammed the passenger door and broke the entire glass window. I ran away from Mom so fast. Haha! The only time I was ever scared of her. Lol!

My newest favorite memory is this last April when we got to spend quite a bit of quality time together. For the first time in I think forever, we did not fight once. I remember telling you how amazing it was to have that much-needed bonding time with you. I was so proud of you because I know how hard you were trying to be a better man and let go of your anger and shortcomings.  We even both sat and were working on our college homework together. If only Mom could have been there sooner with us.

I love you so much, David! Rest! You are no longer suffering and are finally home. 

Your sister,

Krystal
