He was lucky to be loved by such a wonderful brother and remembered for all the good things about him. yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-35311262115423318602014-02-16T21:37:09.184-06:002014-02-16T21:37:09.184-06:00I'm so sorry you lost your brother at such you...I'm so sorry you lost your brother at such young age.

I think we sometimes feel guilty because we COULD NOT help....even though no matter what we did WOULD NOT have helped. My heart aches for you-I know how you feel after losing my only brother just a year ago. xo DianaNanaDianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14298962791700019785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-2586797914838291042014-02-16T15:51:11.978-06:002014-02-16T15:51:11.978-06:00With my parents gone, my brothers is my closest li...With my parents gone, my brothers is my closest link to my childhood.

He will be whole, healthy, and happy to see you. I have a younger brother I'm looking forward to seeing as well. He also died before his time. I am dedicating the last book in the Tides series to his memory--I know that will bring a smile to his face and it will help to ease the loss a little for me. Time and love cure everything!
