I never met Tommy, but I feel like I know him now. I think it's amazing how he is still inspiring people to be better versions of themselves, and to live a life of positivity and genuine care for other people.

Was feeling sentimental this morning. When those moments hit I take them. The times when I miss my dad, my grandparents, and even my little cousin. I was 16 when Tommy Lee passed away. At that time of my life, it was the hardest hitting death. I lost distant relatives and even some older folks in our church, but to lose a cousin, it was like losing a brother. Our cousins are more like brothers and sisters and to lose Tommy was a gut-punch like no other. It sickened me and saddened me. It was like a small piece of us all died that day. No one knew what to say or do. A young boy should live to be old, not have his life stripped away by something as brutal at this disease.
I grieved then as a cousin/brother. I grieved later in life after having children of my own, and now I grieve through the eyes of a grandparent. Each phase brings with it a different perspective. I've lost many good people in my life, but I'm thankful for the hope I have in Christ. I'm thankful for the love of family that kept us close and still does. We have a forever bond that not many families have but I truly cherish. thank you Jeff for having the courage and love to make such a video. It's obvious the pain of loss doesn't go away, but it's also obvious our love for Tommy didn't either. Love you bro! - Dale
