View all 78 ReflectionsBrian, I miss you kind, gentle presence. I still wish you didn't have to go. Your dedication to what was right and just mirrors my own, and there's few people to understand that mindset. I wish we could have had yet another conversation before you left for heaven. Please watch over me as you talk quietly with Daddy, Mom, Granpa and Granma. I will see you when God takes me home.
