Police Officer Kilonzo Musili Masembwa

20 years... 20 years since you’ve been gone. 20 years of missing you. 20 long years. I can’t believe it’s been 20 years. It is so hard to believe it was that long ago when it only feels like a couple months. I still make sure you’re incorporated in everything I do. This day is always a difficult one for me. I always take off work so I have time to honor you. I wonder so much what life would be like if you were still with us. Just a glance is all I need. I used one of your songs as my wedding song. I know Grandma was touched. I’m just so glad I was able to incorporate you in one of the best days of my life. Gosh I’m tearing up just typing this because I miss you even more on this day. I am in awe of Grandma, & your siblings for how strong they have been. As your niece I can’t even hold it together on this day. I sort of envy them because they were able to make more memories with you & spend more time with you. Although, as a 7 year old, you definitely showed me so much love & every time you came around I was SO happy. All of my memories of you are great ones. I never remember you getting angry or being upset. Just always smiling, singing & being happy. Thank you for leaving me with amazing memories & for being an amazing person. I love you forever.

-Your twin
