I don’t know why it’s the silliest memories that stick, but when I heard you were gone, this one came to mind. I came to your mom’s house one morning and somehow you talked me into taking you to IHOP to get pigs in a blanket. It was so insignificant at the time, but it’s the little memories that have the biggest impact. I’ll miss you my sweet cousin, and all of the times we made little memories together.
I am so sorry for your loss of Sweet Danielle. I will never forget her smile and energy. Praying for you guys so much!! She will be missed! Love you my friend! I’m sure you will have front row seats to the Packers every week:)
