Thanks, my friend, for inviting me to your home. It took me 36 years but I made it, and it was just as you said, a beautiful place. I'm glad you grew up in such a wonderful island, and that you had a loving wife like Doreen. Keep an eye on us till we see you again.

Thank you, my baby brother and all the other heroes who gave their all. We will always miss you and love you very much. We will see all of you some day soon. Love to all and God Bless!
From his sister,
