You were taken so rapidly, the hardest part is that it happened unexpectedly. The last time I saw you we didn’t say goodbye instead we said see you later. 
I’m repeating that today because I refuse to say goodbye. I will see later in my thoughts and memories. 
When I dip my French fries in ketchup. I’ll see you cringe because I know how much you hated ketchup and it’s smell. Which by the way I still ask myself how you survived working at McDonald’s as a teenager when you know the place reeks of ketchup. 
When I come across an episode of Jesse Ventura I’ll see you focused on the screen, eyes wide because we all knew you loved a good conspiracy theory. 
I remember one night we stayed up super late watching Jesse Ventura and a marathon of hardcore pawn. We loved the drama. 
And When mom makes green enchiladas I’ll see you dig in happily, because that was one of your favorite dishes from home. 
Speaking of home.I’ll never forget one evening mom had to go run a quick errand and I was home alone. 
Everything was fine until all of a sudden I heard your bedroom window open. Of course I got scared and grabbed a frying pan from the kitchen and quietly sneaked past the living room to your bedroom. 
Turns out it was you coming in through the window, thinking no one was home. You really did scare the crud out of me so for payback I scared you, yelling out “What do you think you’re doing?!” You quickly turned around, startled and asked “what are you doing, I thought no one was home!” 
You saved my life when I was only five years old. We were in Mexico and I thought the water wasn’t too deep. No one could find me to pull me out, but you did. I’m just sorry I couldn’t save yours. 
I don’t know if where you are they celebrate birthdays, but right here, it’s your birthday and I miss you.

Although I never met him personally,  he was a good friend to my son. He was always there  to listen and  frequently offered compassion as well as advice.  

Our thoughts & prayers are with the family at this incredibly difficult time.  May you be surrounded with the peace and comfort that can only come from God!

 Fly high with the other beautiful angels!


My condolences to the family. He was a good guy. No judgement on anyone he meet. Rip Bird.

I feel a missing part of me without you here. I know we all do.
I don’t know if that feeling will ever go away. Remembering all the great times with you helps ease the pain if only for that moment. You were always a fun and caring brother down for a chase and some laughs, wrestling with your brothers and cousins. In turn you became a fun uncle continuing on that tradition and creating similar memories with my own kids. One thing I always admired about you was that you were never quick to judge anyone. It did not matter how a person looked or how much a person had or didn’t have, if they acted with good will toward you, they were okay in your book.  You were able to see good in people. What some people might not have known about you is that you were very trusting and compassionate.  I will always remember you like this.
