Hey, brother Nichie.
We tend to reflect at year’s end on our blessings and our pain. I just wanted to let you know that you continue to live in our hearts. I still remember going to take the test with you. It’s difficult to comprehend that happened 23 years. Please continue looking over us. Especially, Lisa and your sweet babies, Gracie and Julia. They’re all amazing, as you know. I hope you feel how much you’re loved and missed on a daily basis. You’re an inspiration to all of us. Rest well, dear friend.
