The seven year anniversary of your death is around the corner. Its hard to believe. Your absence is as fresh as it was the day you died. No one has forgotten you my dear baby brother....especially me. I think of you everyday and I see glimpses of you in my children but everyone sees it especially in the baby, your namesake; Nathan Clay. He has that mischevious glimmer that you had. I am missing you alot lately but that doesn't surprise me. I feel you with me when family events pop up (the elbows, giggles and private jokes) I miss your reassuring "Don't worry about it" when things aren't going right. I do hear you Clay. I hear you talking on the monitor to Nathan Clay and I love the visits we have in my dreams. I never had the chance to thank you enough for all the great times and guidance you have given me and are still giving me everyday. Because of you I understand why you should cling to those you love and cherish each moment you have. I will keep my promises to you forever. I will keep you alive in my heart. I will tell everyone I meet how you changed the lives of so many. I will always, always thank God for the 24 years he gave me with you and count the days until we meet again. Today is father's day. I will hug Dad for you and remind him how you loved him and looked up to him. I will always wish this day could've been yours to celebrate as a father....you'd have made an awesome dad and the boys still remember you and call you their favorite uncle. I love you, little brother, and miss you with every beat of my heart.
Your devoted sister, Sharon Biles-Harnett
