You have taken a piece of us with you but we will never be parted with your spirit. 
It inhabits us all and will remind us always of what it truly means to be alive. 
Wherever you are - it’s now a happier place because of that beautiful laugh of yours. 
We love you our silly, beautiful, funny boy - until we meet again. Somewhere over the rainbow right 🌈 🌈🌈♥️♥️♥️"
