We miss you so much, especially today when it would have been nice to be celebrating with all your friends and family with you there laughing and joking. Instead we are getting together anyways without you. We'll cook, eat cake and the crew that went up to Cherry Lake - Ron, Logan, Vince, Dan R., Dan H., Mike, Jenny and Jeff, (I think that is it?) will come back to tell us about the beauty of that place where you left us here on Earth.
The grief is still raw. I told Diane at Bakesale Betty's this morning about you and broke into tears. She asked me if Uhuru was having a booth at the Temescal Streetfair and I told her that today was your 40th. She gave me a free coffee ;) and told me about losing her brother David. Everyone has a story to share. But everyone's story is the central one to them.
You will always be a part of my life long after you have been gone. I regret not seeing you more and having more conversations and laughs. I regret not being able to share in raising our kids together. You have been so much a part of our lives - the birthday parties and holidays. I have the video of the last time that we saw you and you took each of us up in the plane.
You are so special to us and will be forever in our hearts. I know it sounds trite, but there is no other way to say it. Thanks for the memories. Thanks for the movies. We will dream big dreams for you.
Love,
Wendy and all of us
