He is still deeply missed from all who'd had the chance of knowing him and especially by me his "Big Brother"
.. If only it were possible for us to see the effect of what possible pain would be felt in the permanent absence of ourselves and have the chance to be in attendance to this course of life we all learn from, because no matter how hard it may be sometimes or how simple we are not graded in this course of life until it's all done.. Way too soon for some,I'm sure many would agree.. So if you haven't cared to give thought for self about your personal well being, just think of how you'd be missed by those who truly care about you because many names have been written on many wall's but not all are remembered by those who have written them! Live your life as if you know how valuable having one is if you haven't figured it out yet.. And make sure you keep in mind the well deserved reward for actions given whether good or bad because loved one's will be happy for you if you're rewarded good and will definitely miss you if you somehow become absent from the course of life.. Learn more sooner than later because job applications don't ask you what set you're from and you're hood name neither did your birth certificate and neither will your death certificate if in the event of your unfortunate demise.
