In the beginning of October we gathered at my mom's house to celebrate the 92nd birthday of my grandmother, Chris' great-grandmother. Brian and Gina and Chris were there. I remember thinking as we talked before and after dinner, how great it was that even as a teenager Chris was happy to come to these family gatherings. And I thought how much like my brother he was. They were like a comedy team together, playing off eachother with impeccable timing. So attuned to one another. I cherished that moment at the time and will even more now.

I feel fortunate that I got one last chance to hug and kiss him and let him know I loved him. Who knew? We will always cherish the memories and never forget the good times. Luv you Chris.
