September 19, 2022 at 4:44 pmMy Uncle Gene,
You are one of the most special human beings I know and over the years, you have been in my thoughts far more than you know. Only my wife knows this… but one of my motivations for working so hard all the time was so I could buy a boat that was easy to board, so I could take you, Avis and Mom for rides up and down the Maine coastline. I fantasized about this for years, envisioned your smiling face and hoped like hell I could afford to do it in time. I didn’t make it dammit but please know I tried hard and will continue to, so perhaps I can at least do it for Avis and Mom. I didn’t see you as often as I’d like to have but our chats have always been memorable to me, especially the one we had during our most recent visit in late June. I’m so happy I took the time away and took advantage of the opportunity to ask you the questions I’ve had swirling around in my head for years. I will miss you, your laugh and sense of humor. I’m sure you, my Dad and my step father Grumpy are going to be raising some you-know-what up there in Heaven. Be careful not to overdo it, so you don’t all get kicked out! I love you so much and please know, you will continue to be in my thoughts. Peace and love to you always.
