You were a wonderful big brother. You taught me to fish, hunt, make cheese, shoot a gun and so many more things that have helped me grow and helped me be the person I am. I am going to miss our phone chats and your texts that you accidentally sent to me instead of who they were intended. I love you big brother, always have always will.
