Shiny beautiful day, not so cold, laughter ringing as you race to the car and to be the best person you could be. One tiny instant and you disappeared. No second chances or last words, no thoughts to comfort us. I should have stopped you, for a moment, just a second to give the world time to reset so that you weren’t a causality. I failed, little brother.

The powers that be in this world give and take without questions and without answers. “Why?” was the question on my mind for years. There will never be answers.

One moment, someone’s stupid mistake, and you are gone.

You are my mother’s broken heart.

You are the other half of my childhood.

You are the grown up boy with Air Force dreams.

I love you.

And I miss you.

Love me

I did not know, ChelPixie. I am *honored* that you shared this most painful event with your online friends. Peace to your day.

A tender moment in time beautifully written by a loving big sister. Somehow I feel he's still always with you. Not just in memory, but like an angel that walk beside you (when he's not being impish). could hear his laughter in your words. I'm so sorry for your loss, hon ... The only failure would be you thinking you failed, hon. Angels are meant to be & yours sits beside you. *sending love*

I'm crying for you, Chel. Sending the biggest virtual hug I could possibly send.

Typed words never express sorrow well, but oh Chel.. :( :( :(

Kevin has the best sister anyone could ever hope for. You did not fail him. Life failed you both. And I am so sorry that it did that.
