I know we didn't see each other often. That's what life does. People have their lives and don't think this is going to happen. But I did and do love my uncle and wish he was still here. He was my Godfather, my uncle, my mom's baby brother, and I miss him. I hope he is at least happy to be with his mother, brother and sister, all reunited.
