Dave, I so wish you were still here for all of us that miss you. You still are the greatest brother - love you much still. I think of you all the time - and talk to you - I hope you can hear me wherever you are. Love you much brother of mine.

My brother David... the one who always made me feel special. The one who talked to me Lv me I was his sister, his friend. We didn’t have a very good conversation the last time we spoke. Over our sister, Sue. My heart was so very broken the day I found out you passed away. Our brothers contacted me. Susie did not. I am so alone David. I do not have a sister or brother’s anymore since Mom died. We don’t talk to anyone in the family. I pray for our siblings daily yet I know in my heart that they don’t want or need me. So much pain I have dealt with. I will forever miss you and I couldn’t even keep it together after I found out you passed away. I will forever miss my siblings. I thank God that he gave me my family  Randy and our kids our strong. Too bad us kids can’t share adult memories together. Past. Thank you Susie for posting this. David will always be in my heart.

Dave, it’s been 1 year since you left us, and today tears are in my heart. You were always my wonderful brother and best friend in this whole wide crazy world – I’m lost at times without you. 

As the best brother and sister team EVER, we dealt with a lot together from little kids up to our older years. We accepted each other for who we were, tolerated what we couldn’t control/change in and for each other, had our ups and downs, but we ALWAYS, ALWAYS, loved each other, respected each other – that’s the true meaning of a sister and brother – no judgment, accepting what is, and caring.

I live my life with those thoughts – and I’m more at peace within myself.

Tomorrow is your birthday, and I will celebrate it with Charlie – we will have macaroni and cheese with a side of crab legs…….and maybe a salad.

I miss you Dave,
Love, Sue (and of course Charlie)
