My Brother, My Best Friend
So, I hadn’t posted here about this, but had on Twitter and FB. I felt the need to put it here, too, especially since a recent post was about him and being a father soon. My dear, sweet, beautiful brother died this year, unexpectedly at the very young age of 32. My heart is broken. I miss him so much. He died in his sleep. It was a problem with his heart that we did not know about prior. He was my only sibling and we were so close. We talked every day via IM, phone, or in person. I feel like my right side is missing. But it’s ok. I’m ok. He died like I could only hope to, peacefully in his sleep after a fun night with a great friend.
My sister-in-law Meggan was pregnant at the time and changed the name of the baby to be Reubina…Ruby for short. That, to me, is so wonderful. My baby brothers baby has his name. Oh…and she IS beautiful. She was born on August 21st and I’m so happy just thinking about her.
I am very appreciative of the kindness of everyone. Very very appreciative. Sometimes I get to weepy to tell you all how great you’ve been to me. Thank you.

I am so sorry to hear that.
I’m in shock, what a loss. I never met your brother but everytime I’ve been with you, he came up in conversation. I’ll be thinking of you, all of your family, and especially Meggan & Reubina. Take care.
This is very sweet. You two were lucky to have each other. Send me an email, so I can update your info on my end. I need your home address as well!!
