A few days before Christmas I just wanted to reflect on my brother officer. I think about him always around June 28th, but also around Christmas. I too feel an emptiness. A hole in my heart that never heals but only scabs over and breaks when I think about him. I often wonder why God didn't take me instead. I just want all his family and friends to know I try to live a Godly Life. I try to make everyday count in appreciation of the sacrifice he made for me. I love you brother.
