Hi all-
As was posted a few days ago, my brother Dave passed away on September 2nd. As some of you know, he was my fraternal twin and my only sibling. We did everything together growing up in Pittsford, and remained close ever since. He had spent almost 42 years on kidney dialysis, 3 days a week, each treatment 6 hours door to door. He never complained. He was the bravest, purest of heart man I have ever known, or ever will know. I am comforted by the fact that his passing when he did saved him from more pain. But I will miss him so much. He was smarter than me; more accomplished; more talented; more coordinated; better-looking; more athletic; a better golfer; and 5 and ½ inches taller than me, but I loved him anyway, very much, and always will. I literally and figuratively looked up to him. I was able to be with him in the hospital after he fell, and tell him that I loved him and that he was the greatest brother anyone could have. And he told me the same thing. So I have that to remember, along with so many other memories of him. Love you, bro. –Tom
