| Ryder, Rob, and Reno |
As if I ever had a picture of just one twin or the other!When they were still in diapers and cruising, they had distinctly different personalities and, of course, their own private language.
Then, one day, I witnessed them pull that evil twin switcheroo, one pretending to be the other for a long minute, then both of them having a hearty cackle over the scam they pulled.
I'm sad to say that due to family drama and distance, I never got to know them well, but I know my brother.What I can't imagine is the kind of grief a parent feels on losing a child. Glioblastoma is particularly cruel, and I will say out loud that I'm glad his terrible suffering is over.
I also believe in the never-ending energy of the spirit getting another chance to start life anew.

Deb~ Oh, I am so very sorry. Ryder will be deeply missed by those who knew and loved him and especially by parents and Reno. To loose a twin is something else altogether. May his memory be a blessing. xo
As soon as I saw the heading of this post, sadness arrived. Please accept my condolences on Ryder's passing. My heart goes out to all of you, especially for his twin, Reno. Twins have a unique bond, a spirit connection unlike other siblings, that sixth sense. My twin girls are not identical but many times have exhibited this trait as have my twin grand kids, a boy an a girl. They know intuitively when they are needed for each other. As Nancy noted, may memories hold for all in the family.
Thinking of you.....
I’m so sorry Deb. Sorry for your poor nephew’s rotten hand, sorry for your brother’s and the surviving twin’s suffering and I’m sorry that things didn’t work out in a way that allowed you to know him. ~ Dee
Thank you all.
