    Oh, how i miss my best friend. Rodie and i shared a bond, not just a regular brother/sister bond , but more powerful than that. WE were bestfriends. We did so much together, i was his favorite little sister since i was little, up, until he reached heaven . I miss you so much :( Wish he was still here , i know we all do. Days like this , i just need him even more . He was so loved by so many people.
    Rodie and i would go party just about every weekend, we shared so many memories together. That i will forever be grateful for. I was the only sister he would take, i can remember tabitha and Alicia wanting to go sometimes and we would sneak out and leave before they tried to get in his car. Rodie has so many nieces and nephews that never had the chance of meeting him , i sure do wish with ALL my heart that my precious daughter would have gotten the chance to meet her Uncle Rodie. But best believe she will no everything about him , i may even tell her some of our secrets when she gets old enough. Man , my heart hurts. I miss him so much, more than anything in this world. I just wonder what my life, what our family would be like if he were still here…… I know he is up in heaven taking care of little baby Loni. ( My twins daughter who passed away) I know he is. How jealous i am of the bond them two have . But that’s ok , I wouldn’t want it any other way .
    To my family, i love you all dearly. And to my bubba, you are missed more than words can express/ explain . I love you bubba.
