   And what this did not say is how much fun my brother was to be around. He was always jok­ing, laugh­ing. He loved teas­ing peo­ple just to get a rise out of them. He loved music, loved his family..loved his friends. No one could be angry around him, it was just impos­si­ble. He some­how always found a way to make light in even the dark­est of times.
   He will be missed so very much. And I hope I will never stop hear­ing his laugh­ter or imag­in­ing his grin.
