JJ was the strongest, most determined, handsome little man throughout his two years of life. Despite his challenges his family never abandoned him and in fact provided a home with more love than any of us could ever wish for in our lifetime. JJ soar high. Give my bestie a hug and PLEASE assure John knows I’m doing my best to be there for his family in his absence.
