Brother!! My hearts so broke. I just sit here, like i always do when i come home..in ya basement and half the tables gone. Your smile… the way you were such a good brother uncle son cousin … the way you could smile and forgive and still call people who hurt you friend, is the true Cheyenne way. If all your pain struggles and sorry are lifted… then I can let you go…till we meet again…. -big sis, Maria killsnight
