Missing my brother

It's been years. Many years. But today is the anniversary of my big brothers death and I just want to put it out there.

You are never forgotten. You are missed everyday. We wonder what kind of Dad you'd have made. My girls would have adored you. You are still a big part of our lives, I only wish that I could see you again.

I know words can never really help - but I am sure he is looking down on you and is very proud of you

I strongly believe in these things.

((hugs)), very sorry for your loss.
It doesn't matter how many years pass the pain is just the same but copeable.
Its is awful to lose a sibling, i lost my brother near christmas 2006 and every year that has passed since the more further away i feel and the more i miss him.
Try to look through photos, videos and other mementoes, it reminds me of happy times before he got too ill.
Maybe you could set of a balloon into the sky or a firework to mark his passing, i do this every year on my brothers death anniversary and what would have been his birthday-it makes me feel like im sending something to him.
This year will be the sixth year but it doesn't make it any less heartbreaking so i know how you feelSad
I sometimes wonder too what kind of dad my bro would have made and what he would be doing now, i so wish i could see him again too Sad

Thanks everyone.
Lighting a lantern is a good idea - my children will like doing that for him.

I appreciate you all taking the time to read and write. I really do. x
