Book of D: Happy Heavenly Birthday, Brother

You were the only brother I had. Although we were estranged for a while, you never brought grief into my life. You were there, and I knew it. Somewhere deep inside my core, I knew you were always a call away if I needed you. You passed away last year during my birthday month: June (26th). I am glad I got to see you in the hospital as you neared the final days of your life. I am both saddened and relieved, I must say, that I was not at the hospital, along with my wonderful four sisters, your wife of over four decades, and your three sons. It felt right being where I was that weekend when my oldest sis called to tell me you had passed away. For all the things we didn't get to share, for all the loved ones we didn't get to know who were in our respective but not mutual lives, there is much regret, but knowing I tried helps me move forward. I will always love you, brother, and I'll miss you.
