Anthony always loved his Uncle Steve so much and in some ways was so much like him. Steve could make you so mad at him one minute then have you laughing at him and wanting to just hug him the next. Since it is almost Steve’s Birthday I wanted to post a few words about the uncle he so adored. When Steve was a young boy he was the apple of all of his sister’s eyes. We would do anything to keep him from getting into trouble even when we knew he should!

MY FRIEND

TODAY AS I SAT HERE THINKING,
MY THOUGHTS THEY TURNED TO YOU.
I KNOW, THAT WHERE EVER YOU ARE,
YOUR THOUGHTS ARE OF ME TOO.

MY HEART, IT SURE DOES MISS YOU,
AND I WISH THAT YOU WERE HERE.
I KNOW THAT IT'S NOT POSSIBLE,
BUT YOUR MEMORY IS ALWAYS NEAR.

I THINK ABOUT YOU OFTEN,
AS I KNOW THAT OTHERS DO.
I FEEL THAT I WAS LUCKY,

TOO HAVE KNOWN A FRIEND LIKE YOU.
WELL STEVE, YOU REST EASY,
AND SOMEDAY WE WILL MEET AGAIN.
AS TRAVEL ALONG THIS PATH OF LIFE,
I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOU,
"MY FRIEND"

Added by Linda:
Your sisters love you and miss you too, Brother. You are ever in our hearts.
