Here we are on the cusp of another year starting without you here on earth. My heart is still broken after all of these years. You are so missed. We all move forward and you are in our hearts, thoughts, and prayers. In the blink of an eye we will all be together again. I am truly thankful for our Lord Jesus Christ. You always cared deeply about others and never let this cruel world change you. You risked your life when you did not have to and made a difference in so many lives. Thank you for being you. I love you and miss you, Scooter!
