My uncle was a complicated man. You never knew what you would get from him at any moment but the one thing you always could count on was how hard a worker he was and his passion when he believed in something or someone. Some of my fondest memories were mad in that house on Willis St, memories that shaped me into the man I am today. That house represented love , safety and knowledge to me as I grew up. My uncle taught me some of life’s simplest lessons that still echo inside me. Now he joins his beautiful wife and brothers beside the father and I know that they all watch over my family and with that in my heart I know I will make it through. Take your rest Uncle Sol your fight is through and your reward is one on a scale of greatness that those of us here can’t even imagine. I love you.
