It seems like we have known each other for our whole lives. Born only a month apart. Your memories are entwined in mine. Smiles, laughter, tears, hugs, and the loss of so many loved ones over the decades. Binding us together. You were my Cuz and my friend. We were miles apart and yet when we got back together, it was automatic and immediate.

I will miss you very much. Be with God. Pray for us who you have left behind for now.

You will stay as close as a shared prayer in a quiet moment.

Jay and Family.
