Something he said that has always stuck with me is, “When I die I don’t want anyone crying at my funeral, I want everyone to be celebrating my life, while I’ll be cracking a cold one with the big man upstairs.” My brother has truly inspired me to become a great, loving, and caring person. He is the reason for who I am today, and he will continue to push me to be the best that I can be. I am truly lucky to have such an amazing role model with a huge heart. He will forever amaze me with his passion for helping others. I would be lucky to be half the person that he is
