Jason, cousin, brother, son, friend. You will be missed.
I cry everyday
one tear less
than the day before,
but I still smile
when I think of you.
We will all miss
your presence in our lives;
your warm smile
and the happiness you brought.
We will remember
your laughter
and your involvement.
You cared about us all
and made sure we knew.
This is my way
to return that love
and to thank you
for everything I haven't yet.
A girl I knew
once told me this:
when you lose
a loved one,
you gain
an angel.

You are our angel now
and I feel better,
knowing that you're watching
and looking out for
everyone that you loved.
This isn't good-bye,
it's just until then,
for I know
you'll wait faithfully
for the rest of us,
and greet us with your smile
and a warm hug.
Until that time, though,
you will be missed,
and loved by all.
