How Does a brother say good bye to a sister who was just 1 year and few months older than him.

Well I can’t, so I am just going to tell you how much I love you and that I am going to miss you. I will remember you for my whole life and I know there will not be a day that goes by that I will not think of you. You will live on in my heart and mind forever.

To my favourite sister Karly I will miss you forever. I hope that you are finally happy all the time.

I Just want to tell you that I really wished that I could have told you before you left how much I really, Loved you . The only thing you probably saw was that I was mad at you and didn’t want to have any thing to do with you. But that wasn’t the case. I just didn’t want you to end up the way you did. The reason why I had very little to do with you close to the end Is because I really thought that you needed hard love. To help you get yourself straightened out. I thought that because of are closeness, that if I stopped wanting to do stuff with you it might give you a reason to try harder to get your self under control. As much as It bothered you It probably impacted me more. I guess I was wrong. I really missed doing things with you . More than you could possibly imagine I always had a great time with you and nothing would have made me happier to see you straighten out

I think that we had a special bond that will even last long after you are gone. My biggest regret is that I didn’t tell you this before you left. I just want you to know that I LOVE YOU and I hope that you forgive me for the way I handled your situation because I didn’t know any better. I have already forgiving you. I just didn’t want you to know because I wanted you to get better more than anything else.

I am really going to miss you and hope that one day I will see you again.

One thing I don’t think you never realized is that you really touched a lot of people and I hope if you were watching you saw how many people cared.

Karly, Carbohydrate as I like to call her was a restless soul. In life she was full of dramatic tangents and contradictions- She also had a dynamite character. Someone who came to visit said that if Karlytouched your life you knew you had been touched- she sure left her mark. Close family friends describe Karlyas energetic, wise, witty, intelligent, shrewd, cocky, hilarious, and beautiful. They have hit the nail on the head.  Karlyhad more empathy than anyone I know, perhaps that is because she packed so many experiences into her short life.

I would like to share with you a poem by E.Brenneman

Her Journey’s Just Begun

Don’t think of her as gone away

Her journeys just begun

Life holds so many facets

The earth is only one…

Just think of her as resting

From the sorrows and the tears

In a place of warmth and comfort

Where there are no days and years

Think how she must be wishing

That we could know today

How nothing but our sadness

Can really pass away

And think of her as living

In the hearts of those she touched…

For nothing loved is ever lost

And she was loved so much.
