It has been about two weeks since my brother passed away at 59 years old.

Just Him and me.

Two years later, Cynthia called to see if we could meet to partner on a few things. I was so excited! However, that afternoon, my dear friends from Peru were arriving, and I would be occupied for the next 10 days!
