Condolence: Louise, my deepest sympathy! The days ahead will be difficult without him, but we must use our faith to give us strength and hope. I am reminded of a quote that was offered to me when my brothers passed away. "There is no other love like the love of a brother. There is no other love like the love from a brother."
Brothers are such special people, to have had one is a gift; They are so much of who we are, and how we act and feel; What a joy we have from knowing we were a part of them.
May God Bless you and your family.
