Gabi

Uncle-

13 years-I miss you

Crying this year seems to make little sense-

Rejoicing in your life seems to be a little more relevant-

This heaven sent feeling of remembering you has so much meaning-

I always check in with you to let you know I love you-

That your grandson’s are growing and becoming men of there own-

Your daughter is wonderful and still maintains her home-

Your son is brilliant and the best friend I have-

His heart is like yours and everyday he becomes more of a man-

Your brothers are well, up to the same old-

Your mother is sweet and dear-still as beautiful as gold, her soul is amazing-

With the thought of you and Zadi-I grab hold and remember how you helped raise me-

I will raise Brooklyn the same way you helped teach me-

To be open and honest and free-

If you could only see her she would amaze you-

One day when I see you, we will talk till time is through-

I miss you Gabi, Itchy, I miss you very much-

I will smile today because of your love-

I can see you both smiling down at us-

And I am grateful man for a family of love-

Rest In Peace-

Be easy-

Your favorite nephew (your only nephew)

Richie
