Today is my brother's birthday. I've been thinking about him and my mom a lot lately, partly because this year will mark ten years since he passed away and five years since my mom passed away. With those thoughts, I've come up with a renewed desire to work on a project that my family has wanted to do since the day that my brother passed away: a book of memories.
So, here it is, a call for assistance. Now, I'm going to do this project with or without your help. I certainly have plenty of memories of my brother. But I would really like it to be a well-rounded portrayal of my brother's life, and for that to be possible, I need memories from anyone out there who remembers him. It doesn't matter how big or small. You can post the memories as comments here, or feel free to email them or send them in a Facebook message.
I want to have this book completed by the anniversary of my brother's death (Nov 7), so please send me any submissions as soon as possible. I will take submissions until October, but once I've gotten parts written, if your memory doesn't fit into what I already have, it may not get added at all. Either way, I would appreciate the thoughts that any of you have.
