I am going miss you Cuz. We spent every summer together. Either you here in Boston, or me in Newbern. And even as little kids, running around with your two pet ducks.

I wish I could have had one more laugh with you. But I have the memories, I'll cherish forever. I love you Michelle. until we meet again, rest easy Cuz..
