I love and miss you Brother. I know you would want me to be strong and move on to be happy. It’s just not that easy when your heart is somewhere else. I had so many plans for us this year. Now I will sit on my deck under the gazebo with wind in my hair and sun on my skin thinking would could have been. Who will make pierogies now…you fought the fight with a smile and hardened your heart to swallow back all the pain. Fly high brother, you can go anywhere now. I will keep an eye out for you. I know you won’t be far. Love your “Sis” Lorie Ybarra.♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡Always, Always…..
