Gone but always in my heart

Every step I take, every move I make, Every single day, every time I pray, Ill be missing you
- Puff Daddy

These are the family members who have touched my life and made it so much better. Something they've said or done, a smell, smile or touch triggers memories of them at the oddest times. Luckily I grew up knowing that family is truly a blessing (even when they're working that last nerve), and I thank God for blessing my life with them for the briefest of moments.
