    To my dearest brother Henry, I know that we only shared a short time with each other. We found each other years later. After we were reunited, it seemed like it wasn't a long time had passed us by. We talked about alot of thoughts running around inside our heads. Catching up on life. I'm proud to have met you, got to know you and your lovely family. I will always love you and I thank God for taking care of you in both lives. We will see each other again my brother. Love you from your oldest brother Thomas Gianelloni.
