RIP Brother.

Sorry to hear of your loss Hefty. I lost my brother at 49 too. It's a void that can't be filled.

Hefty, my condolences... Losing a love one that you always believe you will grow old together is tough. I've been there as well, just know that you have a heavy heart today, but as days go by you will begin to remember the good times the both of you shared together.
