My sweetest brother. You always took care of me. You saw me struggle through my teenage years. I fought so hard to be a part of the family. And you reached out to me. You loved me unconditionally. You took me out to dinner and gave me gifts. You always complimented me. You always opened doors for me. Nothing less than a gentleman. You taught me what a man should be. We laughed so much. We cried so much. And you always made everything better. I miss your hugs. I miss your eyes.. With the one brown spot in the middle of the green. I miss how your voice sounded. I miss you speaking Portuguese. I miss your arm around me. But I miss your laugh the most. Especially when you would laugh at my jokes. They deserved groans, but you rewarded me with joy. I love you.
