More than just a brother, a friend and a protector as far back as I can remember.
Like most siblings we had good times as well as bad but at the end of the day, we were Brothers!!!
I am so blessed that you called me 2 days before. You were so positive and upbeat about your life and how everything was progressing with your health.
I will misss our conversations especially on your birthday when I got to call and say “Hey Old Man!!” 🙂
Rest in peace Paul
Until we are united again…
