Heartbroken & shocked. The man who walked me down the isle, passed away suddenly and tragically, Saturday morning. Uncle Mark… I can’t even come to terms with this. You were the reason my life turned out the way it did. You guided me, offered me a roof over my head, consoled me, comforted me, loved me for who I was, with no filters… took me in as if I were one of your own. I owe literally everything to you. You gave me that chance I so desperately wanted and needed in California. You held my hand while walking me down the isle. You loved this little family I created, more than I ever expected. You texted me at all the right times. You let me vent when my heart was hurting. You gave me such great advice. What am I supposed to do now? 
 
My life won’t be the same without. I love you so much. You leaving, has taken huge part of my heart and soul. I will miss your smile, your laugh and your jokes. Your kind and selfless heart and eyes. Your unique point of view and the way you looked at life. 
 
Life isn’t going to be the same without you. But the sad truth is that when I hugged you in California, I felt that was the last time I’d ever hug you. I cried so hard that day… just as hard as I’m crying now. I wish we made it back to California, one last time, so I could give you one last hug. Your hugs were the best. I love you and will forever miss you…..
 
…. To the moon 🌙 and back. 
 
❤️💔❤️💔❤️💔❤️💔
