Adam: You are missed dearly by all, Chicks will never be the same.

Brendan, your brother B**** loves you more than life. I don't know what else to say.

Senior, your entire brotherhood and Goat Locker love you more than life, of that I am certain.

A.D. Get well soon brother, your boys miss you.

All, your "other" family moves forward and carries on the fight. Rest now and know for all eternity you are LOVED and kept alive in our hearts.

With love,

Z.
