I love your note to Jack. Without all of you I would not been able to bear the loss of your brother.

Jack, You're my best friend and I'll love you forever. I think about you everyday and that's no exaggeration. We enjoyed so many glorious moments together. Memories of you sometimes make me smile, most times they make me cry. I can't take you being gone. Many times before I sleep, I ask to see you in my dreams. Sometimes I would blow off hanging out with other people to hang out with you. You were my best friend and I'll love you forever- rather, you ARE my best friend. Jack your soul is so beautiful and your mind is so wonderful. You helped me so much with everything and I could never begin to repay you for that. Last night, I cried for several hours because I realized you couldn't be at your own graduation. I can't go to your open house. I can't sleep in your bathtub again. I miss you everyday and I hope you're happy, you deserve to be. I love you

Just because we can smile again doesn't mean we don't miss you more than ever. You will never be forgotten Jack Romaine.
