    I still miss you, my awesome nephew! My heart is always heavier, when I approach your death, on April 27, 2013! We shared many times, emotions and memories together, as we were painting buddies, for your Dad, his new life, and home! Kathy, the new one showed up, however she had nothing to say to me, and you were the son of another Cathy! I know way too much, as told, and shown to me, in the many times I came by to see you! I will never get you out of the hole in my heart, and pray you are celebrating with those we love, in Heaven! I continue to support the Leukemia Foundation, as you are the third person, I have known, and loved, who have died because of this disease!

    Justin, my beautiful friend, I’m still saddened that we didn’t get to catch up after so many years. I’m so happy you found a place to experience life. You come to me in dreams occasionally…You tell me everything is okay and then we laugh about times we spent together…the river, the sunrise, honeydew & mint… my memories of you are steadfast. I will always miss you. All my love to you.
