Today would have been my brother Tony's 35th birthday. Nearly every detail of that December day in 2009 is still vividly imprinted in my mind. I am not sure how I made it through those initial days, I only know I have not been the same since. Of all the tangible items of Tony's I have, his iPhone is the most special. In the days following his death, that phone helped me to connect to his Atlanta friends, piece together his last hours and even hear his voice. Holding his phone is one more link I have to him, one additional connection.
Happy Birthday, Nony. I love and miss you.
