Special tribute
Your life was a blessing, the memories I’ll cherish. Your wings were ready but my heart wasn’t. You were and still is loved beyond word and missed beyond measures. You were my older brother, my protector and best friend. You shield me from harm and wiped away my tears. I don’t know or understand why God needed you so soon but I know you’re resting peacefully in his arms. So take your rest. I got the family from him. Your sons are going to continue to live the life you dreamed for them to have and I’ll wipe all momma’s tears away. I’ll even stay on her to make sure she’s taking good care of herself. I love you big brother always and forever. Until we meet again
Your little sister ,
