    Little beefcake, I love you so very much. As sad as it is for everyone here, we all know that you have moved on to the next amazing journey. I think I can speak for us all when I say that this is bitter sweet. You are free to fly high and be that superman you always have been, without any restraints. Not a single day will go by that your mommy, daddy, brothers, grandparents, aunts, and uncles, won’t think of you in some way. Our lives have all been changed for the better because of your strength, we have been truly blessed to have had you- if only for a short time. When your older brothers grow up and ask all about you they are going to be overwhelmed with stories of how fierce you were.

    You are in a far better place now, watching over your whole family and meeting all the other special souls that have passed on before you.

    I love you, we all love you, and losing you is a tragedy that, no matter how hard you try to prepare for it, it is still the hardest pill to swallow. You will be with us all forever, and there is nothing that can take away those sweet and priceless memories.

    Until we meet again,
