25 Jul 2006 To my uncle that I never stop thinking about. I've never seen your face and I never felt your touch, but I feel your love and presence every day. I hear stories of you with mommy and all of your sisters, but I still wish I was able to see you and have stories of my own. You are loved so very much and you are never forgotten.
