Tag those clouds, no paint-overs. You are in our thoughts constantly and nothing can ease the pain in our broken hearts. No family get-together will ever be the same without you. We'll leave a chair for you, and a shirt. Look out for my little bro up there and all the relatives. Love you always..........DaBears, Go Yankees

Scanimal- You will be remembered by many, missed by all. You are forever in our hearts, memories, and on our walls. I hope you are at peace brother.

Close as brothers when we were kids. As we grew up we grew apart. I haven't seen you in years and yet when I heard you were gone I started to cry. Even when we were apart, I would think of you from time to time. I'll never forget our times in Birchwood, at North Ave. Beach, and (of course) Aladdin's Castle. Rest well brother!
