I'm sorry we didn't get to see you that first week you were in the hospital. They didn't tell us we could video chat with you until it was too late. We could have seen you that first Wednesday, but again they didn't let us know. I'll always regret not calling everyday to see if the rules had changed, I just assumed the hospital cared enough to tell us. You must have felt alone those days and we are all sorry. We all love you.

Even though I haven't been in this family very long he was one of my favorite people that I have ever met. I feel so bad for the family because i know that everybody will miss him dearly. But i'm so happy that he is finally in heaven were we will all get to see and hug him again. Also you have to look at the bright side at least he doesn't have to worry about anything and he is not in pain anymore. But I will always keep you in my heart and I will never forget one of the best people alive.
