It’s been a week since you left us and I still cannot find the words to express how hard loosing you is. Growing up we were very close, but years and life changed that. No matter how far apart we were I only ever wanted the best for you, for you to have a good life and be happy. I pray that you knew you were and still are loved very much. You were the firstborn out of all of us cousins, and it’s not fair that you were the first to leave. I wish we could have you back and have a “do over.” I would not take for granted the time I did have with you. I hope you are at peace, worry and pain free, Leo. As hard as this is, it is time to say goodbye for now until we meet again. I love you with all my heart, and miss you dearly. If you can, please watch over your mom and give her the strength she needs to get through loosing you……………. ;( ;( ;(
All my love,
Antoinette

How accurate you are that we would all like a "do over." I would pay dearly for that opportunity. I hope it makes a diff in my life and I can honestly say later, when someone I loves leaves me (and they will), that they knew how much I loved them, that I spent time w/them or called them. I have soooooooo many regrets.

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where this is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
that I may not so much seek to be consoled
as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
