This is my take on a simple LO (so the left side is simple :) Letter reads:
Hi, My name is Brekke Morrow. My brother Chris and I pretty much grew up in Aunt Jo and Uncle Rob’s house from the time we were six weeks old until we didn’t need babysitters anymore.
I wanted to write down all my thoughts about Uncle Rob, so I could have them together if I had the opportunity to speak.

Uncle Rob was a great man, I grew up in his home and saw that he was a loving, caring husband towards Aunt Jo, a wonderful grandfather to his grandchildren and he loved all the kids he took care of as his own. I remember him loading all of us into his van and the cookie lady at Publix would always ask,” Are those all your kids?” and each time Uncle Rob would say, “Well, sort of.” I loved Uncle Rob as a grandfather and when people asked about my grandparents I would always say that I had three sets. Both my mom and dad’s parents and then Aunt Jo and Uncle Rob. Uncle Rob will be sorely missed by all who knew him and will remain a constant reminder of how a human being should live. He was a man of God, he knew and loved his Savior, Jesus Christ and truly lived his life according to God’s word. I smile today only because I know where he is right now, I know that I will see him again because of a decision that I made many years ago, when I accepted Jesus into my heart. The same decision that he made at one point in his life, and one that each of us has the opportunity to make.

A little over a year ago, Aunt Jo and Uncle Rob were able to come to my high school graduation party and as they were leaving I hugged them both and Uncle Rob left me with some words I will not soon forget. This is what he had to say,” Trust God Brekke, in everything you do trust Him. His plans our greater than yours and he will help you through any struggles that come your way.” So tonight as we are all here to celebrate Uncle Rob’s life repeat those words to yourself. Trust God, in everything you do trust Him. His plans are greater than yours and he will help you through any struggles that come your way. I am so thankful for the time that I was able to spend with Uncle Rob and his family, and I’m glad I got to share a little bit of him with you today. Thank You.
