Larry, I'm far away in Portland Oregon thinking about you all the time. And your father. And your brother. And how much you meant to your 'new' family. I remember the first time we met at my grandmother's place. I was all freaked out because I had just been travelling the world and now I was coming home to meet a whole new family. But I was so excited. I had always wanted a brother and now I was getting two. I could not have imagined what extraordinary people I was going to get as brothers. It was immediately apparent that I wasn't gaining 'step'brothers but great friends. I love you guys. I probably never told you that but I was beyond excited to know you for my whole life. I know I live far away but I was truly planning and looking towards developing a real relationship with you and Danny and maybe we could've been thrown in prison together for crashing the grammy's or something. Really man, I didn't get a lot of time with you but I, as everyone else, was changed by our meeting. I promise to be real family to your father and brother. My mom chose well and I'm the lucky recipient. I miss you and will forever consider you a brother. Ross
