It seems like the world should stop revolving, if only for a minute to honor my brother's life that was stolen on January 3, 2007.

No more visits, hugs, or text messages. All we are left with is memories.  Your life was taken by a coward with a gun............ and I am so angry I could explode.

Jason,  Nothing so far in my life has hurt me as much as it hurt losing you.  Your death has affected us all.  Kim of course was almost totally emotionally destroyed. We all wish we could have only a minute with you..... just 60 seconds to say goodbye & to let you know how much we truly love you. 

I am afraid you left this world without really knowing because it's hard for some of us to express our feelings in words. You didn't have that problem and never hesitated to give us a hug or tell us that you loved us.

There are so many memories of you here & I thank God for them & for the time we spent together last year. Maybe one day the memories won't hurt so much but today the pain of losing you is still strong & tears are still falling. You are the only one of my brothers who called me "sis" and I miss that. I also miss hearing your big hearty laugh and seeing the dimples in your face when you smiled. I miss your text messages and big bear hugs. I just miss you....  I look at your pictures everyday & my heart aches. We will never forget you or stop missing you.

It doesn't seem fair that life goes on like it does...without you here.  I pray that you are at peace & that God will allow you to reach down somehow to share that peace with us so we can all come to terms with your death .

I love & miss you always,

your sis
