I Can Not Even Believe This is Happening, it seems so unreal. Brian was my step dad. I’m so heartbroken over this. Words will never be able to explain the pain I feel inside. I truly miss you B and Will always remember all the good times that we had.
Until We Meet Again
Love Always Your Princess Kels.
Xoxoxo.
