I miss your big smile and laugh....my heart is broken because the last time I saw you at Ricky funeral it seem like I would never see that smile again, and I never did, you were just heartbroken, now I’m feeling the way you were...... I miss us being at the race track with Aunt Violetta and your daddy, I miss running up and down the streets, I miss the simple and happy childhood we had and I wish I told you “I love you” but what’s understood doesn’t need to be explained, the only thing that make me smile is knowing that you got your smile back....... you’re in heaven smiling and watching over us all, your love was contagious and live on through your family. Heaven couldn’t wait, love you cousin.
