A cousin's love is something we all should experience, you grow up with them, watch them and they are person you look up too, a person you want to be like, someone who can understand you. There were times I told you that I felt guilty for living overseas and you would always tell me to live my life and do what I wanted to do, which is the same thing my dad told me. You understood, military life as you were in it and missed many, holidays, birthday, excited moments and more. You truly are an amazing cousin and overall person. We are extremely lucky to be in your life and to be able to call you family. That will always be the best gift. I will always miss your Happy birthday, cant wait to see you soon for Xmas texts and your jokes. For now you be will My daddy, LW, Aunt Juanita, Grandma, Papa and Uncle Mike. May they guide you and protect until one day we all meet again. I love you forever Derrick. Jessica will be well taken care of, I promise you. We got her from here.
