I loved Jimmy as much as is humanly possible.  He was not only my older brother, he was my protector, my guardian and my friend. 

He died when he was only 30 years old.  I was 22.

He died at his karate dojo after a tournament while watching Monday Night Football with a friend.  He died with his Gi on. At his funeral they laid his black belt upon his casket. 

I try to live my life the way he instructed me to. With honor, self respect, self discipline and most of all LOVE for life and family.

It's been 18 years now since that tragic day in September.  I will miss him forever.
