Tonight is the 2nd anniversary of my middle brother's death. He was "one of a kind," would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. The Tracy Lawrence song, "You find out who your friends are" really does describe him.

Anyways, I thought maybe tonight you could remember my brother if you are having a drink -- coffee, tea, pop, beer,(I drink Diet Pepsi) whatever,(his preference was beer). He was a good guy and went way too soon, was only 55 years old. His nickname was "Moose" (was 6'6") and in the late 80's was voted the "Ugliest Bartender in Snohomish County" and he wore that title with pride.

Thanks for your time. Take care.
