Richie, I ask myself everyday why? You alwats said "Mom, you are number 1, whenever you need me I will be there." I know you are around me and always will be. I have heard the time has come for you to return and all I need to do is look in the babies eyes and I will know. We had some wonderful memories even though you were challenging at times. Just remember I will love and miss you always. The tears on my cheek are to show that precious love.

  Tell me where the time has gone.10 years seems like 1 minute since you left.Im thankful for the times we had even though ill be greedy because ill always want more.The hours we played baseball the fights the laughs and tears.You were by far my best friend in life.I always looked out for you or tried.I promised you last day that we would never walk away mad and had the chance to tell you that I loved you.I miss you more so today than on that day.So much we never had the chance to do.I never thought it was real you not being here I still wait for the phone to ring and you asking me for money or just to hang out.Im sorry things did not work out for you the way I wanted them to.I loved you and would have taking the pain you were going through to make your life more simple.No one knows the bond we had.Ill always have that piece of me missing and I look forward to the day when we meet again when I have completed my job on earth.I love you little brother
