August 12, 2019
David, today marks the 4 year anniversary of your tragic and unfortunate passing. With each and every one of these years, the pain and sorrow that I feel remains constant, if not amplified. No person should ever have to endure the suffering you dealt with on a daily basis without support, love and encouragement. I wish we all would have known what you were experiencing so we could have acted accordingly. Tragically, you were no longer capable of expressing the adverse effects you were experiencing and the constant acceleration of these confusing symptoms. I know I personally misinterpreted these signs rather than delving into the actual cause in an effort to help you. Hopefully, this is a lesson learned (albeit catastrophic) and one that each of us can draw upon as we continue to live our lives. As I pen this tribute today, I am thankful that you'll have another family member alongside you in Uncle Clarence. I will rest easier knowing that you'll be surrounded by loving, supportive members of your family. David, rest in peace and may God be with you. Love, your brother.
