We had the joy of you being a cousin to Dawn, Matt, and Steven……. 

We had the joy of you being a nephew, to Aunt Lucille, Uncle Mike, Aunt Mary, and Uncle Ron. ……and many of our closest friends who you called “Aunt and Uncle”….

We had the joy of you riding your first 2 wheeler, the first day of school, going to cub scouts, playing soccer and baseball……

We had the joy of you playing with all of your friends……

We had the joy of our home being the “Go to house” for your friends…..
