You will be mightily missed.

No more being a dependable, but not to the point of boredom, son.

Always, always in the good graces of your sisters/-in-law no matter the cheeky behavior.

No more being the helpful, available brother, no matter how close or far away your brothers were.

No more nieces and nephews waiting expectantly for your arrival to bring cheer and a bit of naughtiness to relieve the boredom that is their parents.

Those of us on this side will remember your cleverness of mind and hand, your wit, your occasional temper, and your love of the natural world around you.

You will be remembered in those random flashes of memory that come to us all, but...

You will be mightily missed.
