FOUR YEARS AGO TODAY, MY SPECIAL LITTLE BROTHER PASSED AWAY AND I STILL MOURN FROM HIS ABSENCE IN OUR LIVES.
I HAVE SUCH WONDERFUL MEMORIES THAT HE LEFT FOR ME THROUGHOUT MY LIFE.
KENNY WAS 4 YEARS YOUNGER THAN ME AND I CAN STILL REMEMBER WHEN WE WERE LITTLE AND HOW MUCH WE LOVED EACH OTHER.
THAT BOND NEVER CHANGED.
THE LAST FEW WEEKS B OF HIS LIFE LEFT SUCH AN IMPACT ON ME, I WILL SKYWAYS L ALWAYS CHERISH THE DAYS AND NIGHTS THAT I WAS ABLE TO BE WITH HIM.
HE HELD ME IN HIS ARMS AT SANTA FE LAKE PRIOR TO HIS CHEMO, AS HE POURED OUT HIS HEART AND SOUL TO ME REASSURING ME HE KNEW WHERE HE WAS GOING BUT WORRIED ABOUT ME.
I COULDN'T BE STRONG FOR MY BROTHER AT A TIME WHEN HE NEEDED ME TO BE.
INSTEAD I CRIED ON HIS CHEESY CHEST AS HE HELD ME IN HIS ARMS.
I DIDN'T LOOK UP AT HIM BUT HE HAD TO HAVE EYES FILLED WITH TEARS KNOWING I WAS HAVING THE MOST AWFUL PAIN IN MY HEART AND NOTHING HE COULD DO.
I DIDN'T WANT TO LET HIM GO.
SELFISH BUT I LOVED HIM.
A WONDERFUL SERVICE AS I SAT THERE NUMB.
WATCHING THE HEARSE DRIVE AWAY WITH HIS BODY INSIDE. I WANTED TO SCREAM.
WAIT FOR ME KENNY. YOU CAN'T GO WITHOUT ME.
SO 4 YEAR S LATER. THAT PAIN IS STILL THERE.,,,,,,
JUST WAIT A LITTLE LONGER, KENNY .
IT WON'T BE LONG NOW.
THE DAYS TURN INTO NIGHTS
THE NIGHT'S INTO DAYS. THEN WEEKS.
I'LL BE THERE WHEN GOD CALLS ME HOME.
THEN ALL WILL BE WELL........
AND NO MORE SADNESS
NO MORE SEPARATION,
NO MORE TEARS
AND THAT DAY
COULD BE THIS VERY DAY.
THAT WILL BE A GLAD REUNION DAY.
