It has been a difficult year for me. Starting 11/27/07 I thought back to each day and what was happening with you. I prayed that you would get recover and things would change for you. Then when we were told things were critical it was hard to believe that you would not make it. I could not believe that this tragedy was happening again. I was devastated and it broke my heart to see what your kids went through and had to deal with. They did what you would have wanted.

I can only pray and hope that you are in a better place and at peace with yourself.

Always on my mind and forever in my heart.

Your Sister
Kathy

Today (11/13) is your birthday. How I wish you were here to celebrate it. I truly miss you and think about you often. I know that on the day you were born Ma was cooking chop suey. Somehow she remembered what she was cooking on the day all of us were born. Maybe you can ask her how she remembers these things when she had 7 of us.

Happy Birthday Older Brother.

Love
Your Sister Kathy

How ironic that your first grandson and now your first granddaughter share the same birthday: the 15th. As you so often said, the 15th and 23rd were your days.

Well, it's been 6 months since your passing and everyday I get a jolt of reality that your are really gone. But, I finally pulled together the "family reunion" but three very important family members were missing: My sister Jeanine, My baby brother John and my slightly older brother Rick. I am so hoping that they saw it went off well and everybody was fine. I realize this event happened after the losses our families have suffered and I am sorry that I didn't do this 3 years ago. I now know how fast things can happen and people are gone from our lives. If you were here now I am certain you would say "just get along". I truly miss you Rick and I listen to your voice on my machine everyday. Keep your eyes on all of us.

Your sister Kathy

To My Brother's Family: I am sorry I am submitting this so late; but I was not aware that there was a sight. Anyway, it has been almost 5 moths since he left us and it still hasn't sunk in that I will never talk to him or see him; or listen to his speeches.
I really, really miss him. I never realized it would hurt so bad. I am just sorry it took so long for Rick and I to act like brothers and sister should be with each other. I love you guys and stay strong - he has his "eye" on us.
