Though there is much to be sad about, I propose that we all dedicate 2008 to celebrating life in Blake's honor. It is very difficult to move on from 2007 as that is the year I truly got to know my brother Blake in a way I could have never known. He was a gift to us all. To acknowledge the passing of 2007 is to acknowledge a future without my brother. That pains me to no end. I miss him enourmously.
To celebrate a new year is quite conflicting to me, but I know Blake would want me and all of us to enjoy life to its fullest and make the most of every moment. That is exactly what I am going to do. I hope that you can all find the strength and courage to do the same. Just remember the courage and strength Blake demonstrated so gracefully when faced with the ultimate adversity life can throw you. And then remember he did it with a smile.
Love Blake's little bro (Steve)

You told me tonight that your blog would make me shed another tear, Steve, and you were right. We love you and your family, and we're so grateful that you are here with us.
