The memories that I have of him are so detailed, I can remember even the little things. That is why in Brian Doyle’s essay “His Last Game,” I could understand what he meant when, “There’s so much to love, my brother added.

I was able to do a little bit of giving back monetarily last week but I try to have a giving attitude even though my finances have constrained me for a long time.

As I read about him buying 10 copies of the books I just thought…
