I have absolutely no idea what it feels like to have lost someone that close. Like your brother, know that, in family and friends, and even here in our silly world of yoyo, there are many people that will always support you no matter what. I know that your brother’s memory will live on in your constant drive to grow and achieve.

[b]Adam this is so great that you are sharing your video with the yo-yoing community! He is extremely

proud of you and I know that he is in a happy and in a wonderful place… skiing and going on

amusement rides and fishing, etc. I KNOW IT! I also realize that you miss him and I miss him too! He

was an amazing brother and friend, and he still is! And congrats on taking first place in junior 1a at

MWR’s… you did GREAT!!! RIP DEREK, your the best!
