I love you always uncle spike.  Im so lucky to have had the 28 years of extra hard tickles and getting to listen to you and mom give each other shit while playing poker.  Im sitting at home by myslf and this will be the first time since youve past that its sunk in. Illl never get to watch you two play poker together or bicker back and forth or tickle me and sis so hard its like you are going for the bone on purpose lol . Breaks my heart. :( There are little things in life that make your life in my opinion whole.   I know for my mom those poker games were one of the little things,  for me and my sis it was almost bone cracking tickles, but if there is one thing you showed me old man its a brother and sisters love and the bond that could never be broke. That i will always carry with me and never forget. So thank you uncle for being a amazing man im sorry i didnt express it more often when you were here.  I love you xoxox
