You were the best big brother I could have ever had. You were so passionate about the law, doing the right thing, and loved your family so much. You were the one who encouraged me, listened, and sometimes the only one who understood me. Bubby, I love you so much, and we'll hug and laugh again.

Barbi Everett Mealey

I love you and I am gonna miss you, I will see you again
