Time Passes Quickly



It seems like yesterday when I ;
saw your smiling face.
We went through so much ;
together as you were growing up.
The bond between was unlike;
most mother and son relationships.
you were not a quitter always;
finishing any job big or small.
As far as brothers go you;
were the best.
You loved your sister so much.
Brothers like you are hard;
too come by.
We will miss your strong;
shoulder too lean on in;
times of trouble.
Rest In Peace My Dear Son,Grandson, Father, Brother, Uncle, Cousin, Nephew and Friend
