Though we lost touch as the years went on, I want you to know that the love and memories I have of you have never faded. Family, no matter the time apart, always remains. Life often leads us down different paths, and sometimes we don’t reconnect the way we might have hoped. But even in the distance, there’s something about the bond of family that stays with us, quietly and without fanfare.
I’ve often thought of you over the years, wondering how you were doing, even if we didn’t communicate. Sometimes, we get caught up in the demands of life and lose track of those who were once a part of it. But that doesn’t erase the history we shared, even if it’s just a few memories from my childhood.
While we may not have stayed close, I still remember you, and I’ll always acknowledge the part you played in my life, however brief it was. You were part of a chapter in my story, and for that, I’m grateful.
