This blog has been established for those of you who love and care about my brother, Dennis M. Rich. Dennis battled sarcoma for over two years. His strength and courage is truly inspiring. This is a piece of his story.
I read something the other day and thought of all of you. It was about losing someone so close to you. That a part of you dies with that person and that you have to move forward and live because well you just have no choice. But, it went on to say that you and your life will never be the same. And we all know that is true. Life is just different and it always will be. I guess what they were trying to say was don't try to get over it or think it will get better. You just have to learn to live this different life now. My Dad has been gone 2 years now and I really feel this way that I'm different and my life is different. I look at the month of June so different now then, there is Father's Day. Nothing will ever be the way it was. But, maybe making new traditions helps - like the walk for cancer in dennis' memory. Everyone coming together to honor someone so amazing and just to all be together missing him...
I'll see you all Sunday! I know Dennis will be watching all of us.
Hi - We will be thinking of you and your family on your special day - I know it will be a very emotional day and you will make your brother very proud. With all our love :)

There are no words to describe how much I miss you.
This picture feels like you are right here, I still can't believe that you aren't.
I love you Den.
Everyone misses you SO much, Dennis!!!
