Bonjour mon amour,

Hier tu m’as fais la remarque de ne jamais laisser de message sur ton blog, et voilà je t’en laisse un. En lisant ce que tu as écrit sur ton oncle, je n’ai pas pu m’empêcher de verser quelques larmes. Tu écris extrêmement bien et j’adore te lire, et Sam plus tard le fera à son tour.

Continue mon amour, je suis fière de toi.

Je t’aime.

Thanks for your kind words and support everybody.

To my friends who didn’t know my uncle Bob, thanks for taking the time to do so.

To my loving family, I hope this helped ease your pain, even if a little.

Hugs and Kisses to all with lots of love

John, Dad and I read this with tears in our eyes, thank you for saying it so well and with such grace and emotion. I could picture Bob, cigar in his mouth, walking proudly to his garden to show you what to pick. Maybe he was afraid you would pick everything, HA!

Dad and I are very proud of you all (Cindy, Mike and John) and love you all very much.

Jphn you missed your calling. You have made us all proud. Right now uncle Bob would be shaking your had and telling you how proud he was of you, before he sent you for another Kilkenny.

Hey John – As someone who lost a brother, I can tell you that while you’ll never forget your uncle, the pain subsides with time. Thanks for the touching and beautifully written story. My condolences to you and your family.
