My cousin I didn't know.
Cheryl. I wish our family's would have been closer like they were on the farm. Life was so.much simpler then. I never got the chance to know you, but I definitely know the love a brother has for his sister, and your brother Kenny loves you sooo much. I also know loss. I'm sure you heard about us losing our daughter Chloe ( tell her, her Padre loves and misses her so much). I can tell by how much your life and death has had an affect on your brother. I wish I would have been able to know you, you are my cousin. I vow to connect with my cousins from our childhood, so that if another passes, I can say that I knew the person they are. Rest in peace my dear cousin. We will all be together again someday.
