Every NBA playoff season that comes I have a memory of you that I love. Actually its one of my last ones of you. Its April 2004 ,I'm sitting downstairs at Dad and Sue's house. It's late and everyone's asleep. I am watching the NBA playoffs. I was so mad that Karl Malone was playing for the Lakers this year. But I was hoping the Lakers would win a championship that year so Karl would get a ring. I remember you coming down the stairs, I believe you just got home from work and your upset amount something someone did to you. I think you were upset at the girls for something very minor. We sat and laughed about it.
Although you hated sports you watched the rest of the game with me. I was leaving for my mission the Dominican Republic in just a few days and you promised me you would check the scores and let me know how the Lakers did...You never did it, you bugger.
The best part about that night was when you told me about your feelings. You didn't do this much. That night you told me that you looked up to me and that you were going to miss me when I left. I remember you telling me although you weren't sure about which religion you believed in the most that you were proud of me for doing what I felt was right. You told me that you liked that I was I always myself for everyone and that I was kind and giving. You told me that the people of the Dominican Republic were going to be lucky. Anyways one of my favorite memories with you.
I miss you buddy. This past year has been extremely hard. I wish you were around to talk to, to visit with and to laugh with. You always used you humor to lighten the mood. I often think and wonder where you would be in life right now. I know for sure you would be around me and the kids often. They know you and love you. I know you would love them. We miss and love you.
Love,
Bo

Remebering and Learning
Jason, It has been 6 very long years. It is hard to accept the fact that you are actually gone and everyone is struggling with that fact that you are not physically here with us. I wish you were here so I could tell you exactly how much of an impact you have had on my life from not only being apart of my life but also from you passing away. You taught me and made me want to be like you. You taught me to always stay strong and find the best things in life, how to have a bubbly personality and how important it is to just be happy. You made me want to become like you, and just for you passing away- I am able to stay in the right track to not make the same mistake you made. In a weird way its almost like you died in order to be the ultimate big brother and to teach me what is right and what is wrong just by you not being here. There are so many stories and memories that will never leave my heart and mind. And I am proud to say that I really do comment on everything that reminds me of you, I always think about you, and I always share our stories and memories about you to everyone I meet. Thankyou for being the best big brother anyone could ask for.... I love Jason. And I miss you terribly. <3 Your loving lil sister... =)
