Lonnie D.
My big brother lost his battle with ALS this morning at 9:12 am. He was the best big brother a girl could have. I will miss him more than anything in the whole wide world. When my mom died, Lonnie was the one that kept our family together. I have never known a day without him in it. and I'm not sure how I will go on without him now. Lonnie called me Sisty-babe when I was born and he still called me that when I would see him. I loved spending time with my big bro. Every girl should be lucky enough to have a big brother to help and support them through life. We could talk for hours about anything and everything. My heart is breaking into a million pieces. I love you Lonnie, you are my hero. You are the strongest man that I know, you gave a valiant fight and you endured to the end. I will always look up to you I love you with all my heart, might, mind and soul.

I love you Lonnie and I miss you so much! I'm thankful for our last visits with Uncle Lonnie. I don't know how we can live without him.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about this. Everyone who follows your blogs have been waiting for this news. We can tell that he was important in your life and for many of us we we can say WOW!!!

ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for your loss. The words you wrote are beautiful, how lucky you have been to have had such a great big brother.
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteMy heart just aches for you as I read the news about your brother. I know it has been a difficult journey and you must be devastated. My first thought was of your mom and that she must be welcoming him home with her. I know you are strong and the knowledge you have of the Lord's plan will help you get through. Our prayers are with you and all of your family.
Love, Jill & family
