I'm not sure that heaven is a large enough place to hold my baby brother. Whenever a storm goes through, and I hear that thunder, I will know it's the laughter from his new audience, as he tells another story. No one loved his friends and family more, and we all mourn his loss.

On behalf of my family, we would like to thank the CPD for the tribute paid to him over these past few days. To say it was overwhelming would be an understatement. We will love him and miss him forever.

Dr. Daniel Webster
