Jeffy,
Me and your sister think about you all the time and you are truly missed, losing you has left a big hole in our hearts that will never be filled again... my only way to accept and bear this is to know that our Almighty Father took you from us because no one else in this Earth can comfort you from the pain... He was the only one who could give you that comfort and peace... Now that you are resting peacefully on heaven, I ask you to watch over your family, especially your mom and sisters, your god daughter and godson... protect them and become the guardian angel that you always are... We love you Jeff
