Journaling: This is the last picture taken of the two of you together. It was Ivan's graduation day from high school on June 7, 1992. you were together again a couple of times, but they were ordinary dinners with no photos to capture the moment. Dad passed away 5 years and 10 days later. If he had lived another 5 weeks, we would have had a ton of pictures from my wedding, but that was not meant to be. Ivan lived 13 years, 9 months, and 6 days after graduating. It might sound like a lot of time, but it was an instant. He was 31 when we said goodbye. I have many pictures of Ivan in those years, but not as many as I would have if I had only known how few there would be. I have learned to take pictures of the little moments now. Last week marked the 4th anniversary without my brother or my father. I was surprised to find that I have let go of much of the pain to make room for the memories. I love you both. Still. Always.
