Forever In My Thoughts

I thought of you today
I have always believed
That I was fortunate to have you as an uncle
There are many relatives in our lives
But only a very few leave a lasting impression
It is these relatives we think of often
So much of what I have become is because of you
You taught me to believe in myself
You taught me the importance of family
For as long as I can remember
You have always been by my side
You are one of the few people in my life
Who I will always consider a true friend.
