Uncle I love you and miss you so much and I'm so happy you got to see me grow up. Even though you and auntie were practically kids when you got together I always called you my uncle because even at a young age I could see the love you had for auntie and our family. You took me to my first circus, first snow trip, saw me do a lot of my firsts and I'm so thankful for the memories I have with you. You were caring, funny, honest, outspoken, and I wouldn't have changed a thing about you. Even now I still expect to hear your big truck pulling up in the driveway to pick up the kids and say "hi babe". It's hard to believe and even harder to except. You were truly amazing and ill see you again. Love you with all my heart.
