Meet My Brother Jeffrey

This is my Brother Jeffrey. Growing up we have become very close.
He is such a loving person... He has been gone for some time now. He has been in jail Since: July, 1993. He writes me all the time and I think he will be home this summer. My relationship with my brother Jeffrey begins when I was 10 years old. I remember our daily trips to the park to play baseball with his older friend’s everyday. One Winter it snowed very heavily. I remember hauling my red sled with my younger brother Danny. Jeffrey would wake up early in the morning and take me to Fort Green Park where we would spend all day sledding and playing in the snow. I remember climbing up the tallest hill in the park. Once I climbed to the top of the hill I could see the whole snow covered park, it was beautiful. I then climbed on to my red sled and kicked off. I was going faster and faster down this hill flying past the trees and down the hill at top speed. As I approach the bottom of the hill still gaining speed with frightening velocity I spotted a flight of stairs in my path and before I knew it skidded off the top of the steps... I was in mid air... I was flying! I must have been 10 feet off the ground, at that instance, time seemed to stand still. Next thing I notice was the heavy traffic of Myrtle Avenue. As I descended from my flight, my hart was pounding out of my chest. I was heading strait for the busy street. I then braced myself as I slammed to the ground. I almost barely hit a few people as I slid toward traffic at top speed I was scared out of my mind! Suddenly, I was lifted out of the sled and pulled to stable ground. My sled kept going and was run over by the street cars. I was saved that day from near death. After seeing my ruined sled, I looked to see who saved me... It was my brother Jeffrey. There are many other instances of such bonding with my brother Jeffrey.

This is the one that still remains clear as day in my mind. He is such a beautiful person and I miss him dearly. It has been a very long time since I've seen him. Hopefully he will be well when I see him again.
