To My Dearest Brother, Thomas...
You are in my heart each and every day...but today it has been ten long years since we lost you. I can't help but remember the overwhelming sadness, the inability to believe what had happened, and the devastating sense of loss I felt, not only that day, but months and months and months thereafter. Despite those very real and painful memories, I do spend so much time remembering the many happy times we spent together, the things we loved to do, the way we kept each other going, particularly during the challenging times we each faced, and the fact that we could always talk about anything. When I hear your favorite artist and his songs, I think of you and know you are there, both in my heart and in my mind...always with me.
So much happened last year and the one consolation I reflect on which brings some comfort to the sadness I still am feeling is that you were there to greet Mom and to greet Dad and help them so they weren't afraid. Thomas, I will always remember our many conversations, the things we knew and understood about each other that no one else really ever did, and, most of all, I remember you and the special person you are and how our relationship transcends time. There are many days that I feel you are still with me.
I continue to pray for you, and please know that your sister will always love you. We will have so much to talk about when I see you again.
With Love Always, Your Loving Sister, Karen
