My little 9 year old brother's best friend died a few months ago of cancer.

He cried for days and refused to talk. At the funeral I saw him hugging the boy who died's 3 year old brother. I asked my brother who the boy was.

He said "He's my new best friend and I'm his new big brother."

Love that never dies GMH.
