God bless you all in this time of sorrow. You have suffered an unimaginable loss. Although he was a few years older than me and we weren't close, I remember him as always smiling and always happy. I shall treasure the memories of my cousin, "Little Junior" during my childhood. He certainly became a wonderful man, and he lived a full and loving life. May God send His Holy Spirit to comfort you, now and always.
