My Loving Brother,
I can’t believe your gone. I will miss you dearly. My childhood memories are full of you. When I was a little girl, you always came and got me and we did fun things together. You are and always will be my favorite brother. When I grew older, we laughed and joked together. I thank God for the last year we have spent together and all the things we laughed and joked about. It just doesn’t seem fare to have to let you go. Not one day will pass that you will not be in my thoughts. I know God knows best. He decided it was time for you to rest. Rest in peace brother. I will truly miss you. We will be together one day in a better place and time. Love always, your little sister.
Big Brother,
I remember we had some wonderful times together. We had lots of laughs, told a lot of tales, and drank a lot of coffee. I enjoyed the time that you, Jackie, and I spent together. It was a lot of fun. I wish we could have had more time together. You were always there when you were needed. You are a wonderful person. You made everyone around you laugh no matter how bad things got. You truly are a special big brother. I am honored to have had a brother like you. You will truly be missed. XOXO until we meet again. Love your sister, Wanda.
