August 6, 2018Big Brother
You were the oldest and I was the youngest in the family.
I always looked up to you as my big brother to guide me in my younger years of growing up.
Now you are gone and its up to me to fill those big boots of yours.
I don’t know how but I will try my best.
Give Mum and Dad our love.
Go rest high on that mountain your work on earth is done.
We are all very proud of you.
Michael

I can still hear you singing
And see your smiling face
Hold your weather beaten hands in mine
And feel your warm embrace

And we will always remember you
Forever in our hearts
