It’s been 8 years now since you left this world. I truly hope and pray that your spirit will always live on in all the memories we shared. I like to think that you are truly at peace and that even though I miss your presence, you are somehow able to see all who love you.

Today marks the 7th year of the heart wrenching news of your passing. Missing you always and pray that the afterlife is a beautiful place with beautiful spirits that I will join one day. The thought of never is just too depressing to not believe.

I think of you often and hear you in my dreams dear bro. Love you with all my heart.

6 years ago, I received the devastating news of your leaving your body here on earth. I do believe you are watching over us and guiding us through this life until we meet again. I want you to know that we, your family, miss your beautiful spirit and uplifting words of wisdom. It’s a palpable hurt that won’t ever heal. Knowing that you never meant to hurt anyone, I don’t blame you. I just will always miss you, my beloved bro.

This is the 5th year of missing you. Your family will never forget you, nor do we stop missing your funny quips and your beautiful spirit. We will meet again. Say hello to Mom and Dad for us. We miss you all so very much! With loving memories and heartfelt gratitude, you will forever be in our hearts.

This day marks your fourth year of departing our world, May your spirit live on with so many happy memories of your kindness and humorous and gentleness that we all miss. Forever missed and forever an emptiness in my heart. Until we meet again, dear bro of mine.

It’s been a year of mourning the loss that I feel
I keep asking myself, how the hell can this be real?
My thoughts of you keep your spirit nearby
And reminds me of how life can be gone in the blink of an eye
Knowing how you would hate that your passing caused so much grief
We had many discussions about our shared afterlife belief
So strong are my feelings that we will be joined again one day
But that doesn’t stop me from missing you along the way
You were always there for anyone in need
With gentleness and kindness and so many to please
Daniel my brother, I will always love you like no other
Now you are re-joined by our father and mother
I can’t help wondering if you received my last call
Did you hear and ignore or too distraught with it all
The questions unanswered will always make me wonder
How come none of us knew the cloud you were under
Could anyone have prevented you from pulling the trigger
What could we have done to make you reconsider?
If just one person reads this who is contemplating the same
Please consider the many lives it will change
The heartache is real and so much pain for those left behind
Reach out your arms, someone will be there to help you find
A way out of the darkness that soon will be gone
Suicide is final, it can never be undone.

Happy Birthday in the afterlife bro! Love and miss you everyday!

Earth has one gentle soul less,
And Heaven one angel more
