You will always be my brother and I have always loved you!
Our lives only separated due to your ability to look pass our abusive childhood from BOTH our parents’ hands, AND the hands of those they married… when I could not.
And for my lack of forgiveness, I was cast out which led to one final talk between us… so very many years ago.
You chose to see beyond their countless atrocities and forgave them both; which meant taking their side against me.
Even though this rift caused you to sever your ties with me… I always understood your reasons and I ALWAYS admired your strength of heart to look beyond our parents’ lack of support and love.
As I said that last time we spoke; “there are no hard feelings and everyone has their own way to go.”
Until your final day I am POSITIVE you kept trying to earn that Mother’s love from her… I ALWAYS hoped she would eventually become a Mother to you.
But to know you both live in the same town and she didn’t bother to do the least amount of effort for your funeral… BREAKS MY HEART!
Not so much as a celebration of your life.
For you MY brother … I will greatly mourn your death and I WILL be sure that you are remembered for the purity of your loving heart and as the great sibling, friend and joke’ster you were to us all.
SHAME ON ANYONE WHO NEVER REALIZED YOUR WORTH!
Eternally,
Your sister… M.
