Bringing people together

I remember you in the photo, standing tall against the Cliffs of Moher on the west coast of Ireland. Your left shoulder in the direction of America but you looking east. I also remember you when you answered the door to a nervous Irishman, your welcoming smile disarming my worries. Though it was only momentary when you introduced me to your “big” brothers, I will never forget your openness, your understanding and your insight. You brought people together. And you still are…

For this I am truly thankful. You will always live in my thoughts and dreams.

We are blessed to have known you and although I only knew you for a short time you will always be my brother, and I yours.

Don.
