There are so many memories to share. Such a happy life. The best one is you and my brother “walking” on water to get away from a shark when we were on vacation. We shared our birthdays, Christmas’s, the beach and you shared your awesome children with me. I love you and hope you have a special cloud to sit on and wet your fishing line. Rest in peace and know you have touched the life of so many people
