TODAY Is the Anniversary of my Brothers death. Today marks 30 years ..It doesnt seem that long to me at all ..seems just like yesterday..they say Time heals all wounds , well mine still ache inside for my brother..he was my best friend.my brother was very loved by all ..i seen him last on my parents anniversary and for me I always felt sad because i didnt get to tell him goodbye and for a long time I guess I pretended that he was just away , sometimes its easier that way. my parents just celebrated their 49th anniversary and I hope and pray God will let them see many more but I know they are excited to reach their 50th..I asked them if they wanted to have their vows renewed again in the church with a full mass but they told me no its okay that a reception would be fine..I will tell you this I know why they decided not to .you see my parents always have mass said for my brother every year to honor him and on their 39th anniversary me and my brother were their at my parents side and I metioned to Father Young that they were celebrating it that day , you see my brothers death was on the 14th but that day was taken already by someone else in church so we chose their anniversary date so father said well lets renew their vows and me and my brother stood next to my parents and as my father had tears streaming down his cheeks this prism of light it was so beautiful shined across the altar where we stood it took my breath away immediately I said see mama and daddy Anthony is with us and of course we all cried even the priest its amazing sometimes how we think miracles cant happen because that particular day we witnessed one and it will forever be a treasured memory.. I know that is why they dont want another renewal because no other could compare to that day.. I miss you my dear brother and I pray that you will continue to watch over our family..Please know that your memory has lived on in our life and you have nephews that love you even if they never met you ..you see God does work in mysterious ways because your nephew which is my baby son is a spitting image of you ..what a beautiful reminder everytime I see him I see you..you might be Gone from this earth but we know your spirit is with us always..I love you brother Always and Forever..Your Sis.
