Steve Irwin was a true man of the wild. His exuberance and passion for the protection and preservation of all species, and his ability to teach and reach people of all ages will be greatly missed by everyone. My heart goes out to his wife Terri, daughter Bindi, and son Bob, as well as to his other family members, the Australia Zoo staff and all of his friends. All of you will be in my thoughts and prayers every day, and I know that Steve is watching over all of you. May the Great Spirit bless and watch over all of you for all of your days.
I met Mr. Irwin in Punta Arenas Chile, he and his crew were filming a documentary. He was an extraordinary man and i feel very honored for meet this amazing person. My condolences to the family, we all feel the lost, but his legacy remains in us. Keep protecting wildlife!! Gabriela Saralegui

Thank you to Steve and Terri for awakening our spirit and love for conservation. Mr. Irwin was like a supernova in a sky filled with stars!

My husband and I were both saddened by the shocking news of Steve's death. Our prayers and deepest condolences go out to his family. Steve brought the world of animals into our homes and gave us an education and respect for the animals.
I just wanted to send my very deepest condolences to the Irwin family in Australia. I can't even imagine how devastating Steve's loss must be- but we share your terrible pain. I grew up watching The Crocodile Hunter-When I woke up Monday morning and looked at the headlines online I went into a state of shock. I feel as though I've lost an icon from my childhood. May you keep strong in love and memory- for the world will never forget the passionate man,friend to all the earth, Steve Irwin.Don't stop the wonderful work you are doing with the animals.
Thank You Steve,for your dedication to all of God's creatures and for Inspiring Me to live life to its fullest! (and making me laugh )
I don't know that Terri or the children will ever read this but I just want to say a few things anyway. I first saw him while a Senior in college and have been a HUGE fan ever since.
As a grown man I can say I have only cried a handful of times in my lige. Upon hearing the news I was so saddened I sat down in my living room and fought back tears successfully. Later in the evening after watching a special for Steve on Discovery I could fight them back no more. God Bless Steve and Terri Irwin. And Terri, if you do read this, just know that Steve touched and inspired a soul in Austin, Texas. He will be missed in my house.
The tragic loss of Steve has been felt around the world. Our family has been huge fans of the Croc Hunter and Crock Files for years. My children have grown up with Steve on TV and cried so very hard when learning of his passing. Please know that Steve was blessed with the ability to teach and make learning fun. We are all very fortunate to have been able to learn so much from him for so long. His work will never be forgotten and he will be remembered forever.
Our condolences to Terri, Bindi and Bob as well as all of the many friends that Steve has so suddenly left behind. My God bless you and comfort you in this time of sadness and great loss. As you mourn, the world mourns with you.
My family and I are devastated after learning of Steve Irwins untimely death. We did not know him personally, but we felt we did know him and we miss him very much. He did so much good and he raised awareness for conservation and our hearts ache with the loss of him. We send our deepest condolences to his family and friends. You are all in our hearts and in our prayers. God bless all of you, sincerely, The Faraudo Family in California.
Our deepest sympathy to Steve's Family and Friends. Steve was a great educator, really talented in his field of work. I've watched many wildlife programs the last 35 years and Steve Erwin had the best show. My 4 year old son and I learned alot from watching his shows. We will miss him, The James Family.
I am so saddened by the new of Steve Irwin's death. He will be missed by all of us who share his love for animals and the environment. Rest in Peace Steve. God Bless the Irwin family. Cindy Schneider Victoria, Texas
Steve has had a major affect on people in the USA and beyond. When I first saw The Croc Hunter on TV I became addicted to the show and of course the Croc files was another one that I loved. He was an inspiration amoung many people and a legend as I see him in my eyes. Since the start of the show along time ago I realized I can never show history to the public like Steve did but I decided in m own way to follow what Steve said follow your passions. I currently run a website of submitted pictures called www.abandonedbutnotforgotten.com that has abandoned buildings in it. But my main cause for it is it is history of the past like a croc it has survived years of human abuse. Sad but true I had a vacation setup well was in the making to go to australia zoo but not sure if it will be the same. I belive wes his main bub will do well helping out at the zoo as well as all the caring staff. I wish everyone well I have been a fan for years and Steve has tought me to go for what I believe in and so I have to keep people informed of our past and always remember it.
RIP Steve you leave behind alot of people who miss you. And to the whole team at Australia Zoo please keep Steves work up because you placed Australia on the map.
steve was my hero, idol, and an insperation in my life. from day one when he was on discovery swimming with sharks, to his movie, to his last swim. i did a project on australia and i dressed as him. i have also collected his action figures. I am deeply saddend and i will always remember Steven Irwin, one of australias finest. I will miss him...and i send my condolences to Terri, Bindi and Bob, i truly hope the best for you three and jsut know that there are a million people out there that know yor pain. we love him too matt parnham, manteca CA
When we heard the horrible news we were shocked, we couldn't believe what had happend. The world and the animal kingdom has lost a great and wonderfull man and we would like to express our deepest condolences to Teri, Bindi, Bob and the rest of the Irwin family and friends.
Ank, Kees & Fabio van der Parre from The Netherlands
Steve Irwin's optimism and unbridled enthusiasm for wildlife will be sorely missed by millions, but of course most of all by his family, to whom I wish to express my condolences, as well as many thanks for their devotion, along with Steve's, to a future that nourishes and celebrates our planet's wildlife. The thoughts of the world are with you now through this difficult time. With heartfelt sincerity, Liz from Seattle
Dear Terri, Kids,and all Steve's family and friends, My family and I have loved Steve and Terri since the show started and we were heartbroken to hear of his death. There aren't enough words to express our deepest sorrows over his passing. My 12 yr old son cried all day when he heard. A good frind sent this poem and I think steve may not have said it like this but if he was saying it you would understand. If tomarrow starts without me
If tomarrow starts without me, and I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me.
I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today while thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me as much as I love you and each time that you think of me I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomarrow starts without me please try to understand that an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand.
And said my place was ready in heaven far above and that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
But as I turn to walk away a tear fell from my eye for all my life I'd always thought I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for so much left yet to do it seems almost impossible that I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays the good ones and the bad I thought of all that we shared and all the fun we had.
If I could relive yesterday just even for awhile I'd say goodbye and kiss you and maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized that this could never be for emptiness and memories would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things I might miss some tomarrow I thought of you and when I did my heart filled with sorrow.
But when I walk through heavens gates I felt so much at home When God looked down and smiled at me from his great golden thrown.
He said," this is eternity and all I've promised you today your life on earth is past but here life starts anew."
I promise no tomarrow But today will always last and since each day is the same way there's no longing for the past.
So when tomarrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart, for everytime you think of me. I'm right here in your heart.
Terri he's with God now watching over you and Bindi,and Bob. He did such great things down here think what he can do with God. I pray some day since your home town isnt far from mine that I can meet you and tell you from my heart how you and your family feel like a part of ours. Since every night your in my home with our family. God bless you and your young ones.
As I heard the news the only thing I could think of was how obvious it was that Steve loved every part of life, from the glory, to the pain, and everything in between. His love for the earth, animals and people were I think the things that made everyone love him too. The world is definetly a better place for him having been here, and although he will always be missed he will never be gone. My thoughts are with you all.
I would like to offer my sincerest condolences to Terri, Bindi, and little Bob. Steve was truely an inspirational man. I grew up watching "The Crocodile Hunter" and the minute I saw Steve's enthusiasm for all living creatures, I knew I wanted to be just like him. He played a huge part in my decision to go into pre zoo-veterinary medicine, and his amazing leaps and bounds in the animal conservation world inspired me to set my own goals to help. It was one of my truest and dearest wishes to someday see the Australia Zoo, and possibly intern under the man who inspired me to do so much, and helped so many people to see the beauty in animals and mother nature. I am so very sorry for your loss, my prayers are with you. Remember how lucky you are to have shared the years you did with the world's most passionate animal lover.
This poem brings me a sense of peace when I think of my loved one's passing. I only hope it can do the same for you.
"I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength and I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and the sky come down to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says: "There, she's gone." Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and just as able to bear her load of living weight to the place of destination. Her diminished size is in me, not in her, and just at the moment when someone at my side says, "There, she's gone," there are other eyes watching her coming and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes."

Thanks for Steve Irwin your passion has inspired our spirit for loving animals. We never forget your smile and we will pray for Steve Irwin's friends and familt.
We will miss you Steve! But we will also remember all the wonderful good you did for the world. Your quest for knowledge of the wild and your unbelievable joy of attaining it should be an example for all. My sons will greatly miss your joyful smile, but I thank you for giving them many smiles along the way...
I just don't know the words to say to you about losing such a wonderful man like Steve. I loved the Croc Hunter show. It is my favorite show on Animal Planet, and I'd watch every chance I got. I have followed your story from the time that you and Steve met and had Bindi and baby Robert. My heart goes out to you and your beautiful children. I know what it is to lose a loved one. But it will never be the same without Steve. I will miss him very much, seeing him on Animal Planet, with you and the kids.
God be with you. I am sorry I don't have any other words of comfort for you. But you and the children will be in my prayers. I hope you can find the strength to go on and take care of both of your wonderful children. Perhaps someday I can go to Australia and visit the zoo. I know your family and the extended family of the Australia Zoo will be there for you.
My deepest sympathy goes out to Terri, Bindi, and Bob. I have not met Steve personally, but i feel like he was a friend.I really enjoyed watching him, just to see what Steve would be up to next. Steve had this personality that every one could love. I pray for your family in this dark time, and I pray that you guys can pull through this in time. I learned so much from watching Steve, about animals from your country and animals from many other places as well. One of my favorite things to hear him say would be, "Danger, danger, Danger" or "isn't she a beauty mate". These are the memories that will linger in my mind forever. Being able to see that energetic Steve, running around so fearless, and pounching on crocs.This is the Steve I want to remember. When I first saw the news I was in shock.I kept searching and searching telling myself, say it isn't so. Steve seemed to be a great man, that died extremly too early. The world has surely lost a true a priceless jewel. Terri, you have a big job ahead of you. You have to be strong now,for yourself and those beautiful kids. Look to your God and your kids, as your strength. Always rememer whatever you do Steve is always with you. Although he may be gone, he is never forgotten. May God forever bless you and your family. Love from the Folse family.
I would like to give my condolences to Steve's family, friends, and anyone who has been touched by him in any way. I was around the same area (Port Douglas) when this happened and the reaction was trumendous. He was a great man and I hope we can cope with the loss of one of the worlds greatest animal conserventionists.
To Terri, Bindi, Bob and all the friends who worked with Steve,
You are all in my prayers in this sad time. Steve was a wonderful man and will be greatly missed. My family loved watching him for his excitement for all the animals that he loved. My god by with you in your time of need. From Cathy in Trinidad, Colorado
My Heart goes out to Terri, Bindi and Bob. Steve Irwin was a one of a kind person. Although I never had the opportunity to meet him in person, I always enjoyed watching his shows. Just the way he was able to interact with all animals was one of the most remarkable things I have ever seen. No one else can compare to the way Steve could handle a croc, or any other type of animal. John Howard has stated that Australia had lost a "wonderful and colorful son", but the world has lost a very dear friend. Steve now lives on in everyone who has ever been touched by him, by either meeting him or by watching his shows. Steve will truely be missed by everyone.
I'm truly heartbroken. My heart goes out to the Irwin family. Thank you Mr. Croc Hunter for your passion & for teaching me so much. You are one hell of an amazing man & one of a kind!! I have enjoyed your show daily for years. You will missed, may your spirit live on & inside of us all. ~I'm very sorry~
Dear Terri and family, A great light has gone out. A light that inspired and created joy for millions. Steve's loving spirit will live forever in all of our hearts. He will never be forgotten. John, New York
To: Terri, Bindi, Bob, Dad Bob and zoo staff, You are all in our prayers, my heart goes out to you. Our family will miss Steve so much. He was an inspiration to us and so many more people. He touched so many lives. His passion for what he beleived in was awesome. He will live in our hearts forever. Terri, your babies will need you so much and i pray for your strength. And for peace for all of you. He's your guardian angle now. He'll always be in your heart. take care. the Brock Family Woodburn IN.
To the sweetest family I never had the honor of meeting in person,
The first time I saw an add for the Croc Hunter on Animal Planet, I thought it was going to be a show about how to hunt and kill crocs. I refused to let my three young daughters watch it until I was certain that it wasn't anything like what I had imagined. From the moment I first heard Steve and that wonderful Aussie accent, I was hooked. Steve was an integral part of my family, helping to raise and teach my girls the value of preserving what little wilderness our planet has left. In a sense, he became a second father to them, and the loss we feel is insurmountable. We share the grief, like the rest of our world. A brilliant light was suddenly extinguished with his passing, and it was far too early to loose such a HERO. The very first episode I ever saw was the one where Steve sort of fell into the poisonous tree. I had no idea that a tree could be poisonous, and so I continued to watch. Like so many, I wondered if he was sane, with all the crazy things he put himself through. As I continued to gather my children in front of the TV each and every day, I began to see just how sane he truly was. There has never been a man so passionate, so enthusiastic, so determined to see the efforts of global conservation shoved out of the prehistoric era as our beloved Steve. He was a remarkable man, one I had grown to believe was invincible because of everything I had seen him survive. He was our SUPERMAN, our guiding torch in the darkest night. If not for him, I wouldn't know half the things I do about the wonderful animals that share our world. He was a pioneer and a trailblazer. If not for his dedication to what he believed in and his refusal to change those beliefs for whatever might have been popular at the time, we wouldn't have a channel like Animal Planet. It would still be an hour long program on the Discovery Channel. So it is to all the Irwins, the friends, associates, and the people who came to know and love him as my family did that I post this. But most especially to Terri. I know your grief, and I hear how your heart cries. But the pain will pass as you live your life. Time will ease the hurt you feel, but the love in your heart, that's what is real. Death is but a new beginning, a sign of life renewing. While he is there and you are here, know that God will feel your tears. You will be together, from now until forever. May time and eternity keep you in the sacred heart that has warmed the lives of millions. Blessed be, my friend. Cassandra Bertrand, Utah
To the Irwin family, Animal Planet, the Discovery channel. I want to offer my heartfelt, deepest sympathies to you on the loss of this wonderful man. I was so shocked and overwhelmed by this news that I just cried all day Monday. Steve reached so many of us, his public, with his messages of love and kindness and environmental concerns, and his passion about preserving the many inhabitants of this wonderful planet. We all went on adventures with him and learned to appreciate all manner of life. There is no rational explanation as to why he was taken from us in the prime of his life, especially when the world really needs to be constantly reminded of his messages. The loss to Terri, Bindi Sue and Bob is unimaginable. I hope it will be of some comfort to them to know how deeply Steve touched all our lives and that he will never be forgotten. May God bless and comfort them. Diane Miller, Smithtown, NY
My wife Jacque, my son Zane, and I would like to express our deepest condolences to the Irwin family for your loss. The world has lost such a vibrant spirit and powerful voice for animals and wildlife conservation. We feel like, we too, have lost a member of our family.
We will be forever thankful for the gift of Steve's talent, knowledge, and respect for some of our world's greatest resources, it's animals, and the energy with which he shared it with us. We feel privileged to have been included in your family through your programs and pray that God will bless you with peace during this time and strength to continue Steve's legacy.
We take comfort in the knowledge that even though Steve has left this world for the time being, he is not far away and you will be reunited with him later.
All of our love,
Ryan, Jacque, and Zane Swensen Taylorsville, Utah, United States of America
:The tragic death of Steve Irwin has left my family in shock and sad, state funeral or not you'll be remember as the greatest conservationist hero of all time. Zilan and family Singapore
Want to send my heart-felt condolences to the Irwin family and Steve's friends and relatives.
Steve was one of the most energetic, charismatic, and cool personalities i've seen in my 32 years. I was genuinely sad when I heard of his passing. I couldn't believe it.
All of Steve's friends and family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
The loss of Steve has been devastating for me and my family and friends. He was such an awesome person and i wish i would have gotten the chance to meet him. I've been a fan of his since i saw his very first show. His love for all animals was so amazing!! He is gonna be sorely missed!!
Our condolences to Terri, Bindi and Bob and to all his friends. God Bless all of you and may god give you comfort in this time of sadness. We all Mourn with you.
I can't believe it happened and I felt really bad and terribly sad. Knowing that one of your most admire childhood and present icon has past away is really hard to believe or accept. Steve was an amazing guy and he'll always will. I really admire his courage and effort he put on his work. If only I could turn back the time, that would have made a difference. My families were also shocked when they heard the news, especially my twin sister and my cousins. They really loved him and his show.
As for the Irwin family and Australia Zoo, may God bless and guide you to continue your work as an educator to wildlife. And also, I want you to know that deep inside our heart Steve lives on… and his name will never be forgotten.
I just wanted to tell steve's family and friends, that we are sorry for your lost. I know a lot people have said this but watching him on tv you really got to know him. and he seems like a friend that has allways been there, i am just sad that my two year old son wont get to see him as much as i have since the 90's. but we will make sure he knows who the crocodile hunter is. he does love watching him now. steve will always be a legend to us and Terri you and your children will alway be in our hearts. the McGarey family el paso, texas
We all aspire for the passion and enthusiasm that Steve has exhibited for the things he loved. These characteristics helped him extend his love for wildlife to millions worldwide. Throughout history people with such passion and enthusiasm for wonderful things have been responsible for the betterment of the world -- Steve is no exception. His messages will never be forgotten.
Although we may strive for "Steve-like" passion in different interests, we should all strive for his passion for family and friends.
My prayers are with the Irwin family and friends. It is unfortunate that such a wonderful person should be taken from them so soon.
Steve, thank you so much! We will never forget you!
To Terri, Bindi, Bob-Bob, Bob , Wes and all other family and friedns of Steve. I am saddeneded by your tragic and sudden loss of the most exuberant man who loved animals. My husband passed away 4 years ago, and was a n advid watcher of his show. When he passed, my sons watched Steves shows to feel connected to thier Dad, Bob. We have learned so much from Steve about conservation, and respect for animals and reptiles. His death brings up sad moments for me, because he was a part of my life with my husband who is now also gone. I have three small children and understand all the saddness with losing your husband suddenly. Terri, I will be praying for you and hoping your strentgh with help from your family brings you through. You and your children were lucky to have such a loving husband and father. They will carry his love in thier hearts for ever. I wish you much love and prayers to all of you. God Bless you at this difficult junction in your life. The Sabo Family Atco,NJ USA
I feel as if the whole world is watching the Australia Zoo and Beerwah. Which brings the comfort knowing that somehow we can all be with the friends and family of this special man. Steve Irwin, this one man, just made the world feel better. His passion for wild places and wildlife will always live on with the people he and his family have touched; and, he will stay a hero for children and a mentor for adults. I, personally, could only wish that I have a fraction of the devotion he has shown to family, and to his goals in life. We have learned so much from this man, we continue to learn and be inspired by his teachings and by his legacy. God bless Steve Irwin and his wife and children and family and friends. We all mourn and still are so hopeful for your future.
Peter and Gina and our Family.

STEVE IRWIN: I was truly heartbroken by the news this week regarding the untimely death of CROCODILE HUNTER "Steve Irwin" by a one-in-a-million chance freak accident involving a sting-ray. Reportedly, there have ever been only 17 such death ecounters EVER recorded! My family's deepest condolences go to Mr. Irwin's family (his wonderful wife/explorer TERRI and his two children: daughter BINDI & recently born BOB), his fellow friends & associates at AUSTRALIA ZOO & DISCOVERY CHANNEL, and to the millions of other fans and friends that supported and adored STEVE. It is indeed strange how GOD chooses to take those certain individuals who indeed have offered so much to the world by sharing his love and passion of the world around us - devoting his life to the love of his profession and to family of man. No further words can be offered - he was a true family man - he was one of my most favorite personalities and I am at a loss to continue.
To Terri,family and friends:The comfort of words can only touch the surface of the deep sorrow in your heart.You are not alone in your pain.Please remember the wonderful blessing and fantastic journey you were able to share and let yourself open to the pouring of blessings you are about to receive to help you get through this difficult time.I am truly sorry for your loss as I too had one day hoped to be trained by the best.Please rejoice for your love shared and true as they were a blessing and will help in times to come.My prayers and tears join you as I wish a brighter day to show you its light with the break of morning sunshine; to remind you of your most profound love and strentgh.You travel down a difficult path but you will only need follow your hearts guidance and God will cradle you and your family to the other side.Please know that you are also loved by us as we loved Steve.Smile and continue to live your life with the same passion and enthusiasm that Steve would wish for you,you have the power and character to get through this and I am here for you.Prayer is a powerful tool in the face of hardship and I pray only the best for you and the entire Irwin family and Austrailian Zoo family as well.Smile again soon as you too possess the light in your eyes as well. Always,Tina las vegas,nv.
To Terry, Bindy, Robert and all the Crocodile Hunter family! I am so saddened by Steve's passing. He truly put his life to the ultimate use in working toward animal conservancy and stewardship. I feel we all need to be caretakers of all the creatures with whom we share this beautiful planet. I feel like a dear friend has passed although we've never met. All of you are so wonderful and loving. May you find peace in knowing the impact Steve has on all of our lives, now and into the future. Warm and loving thought to all of you. Karinkakat, USA
our prayers go to the family of steve irwin. my children and I have enjoyed watching his show on animal planet and I was very saddened when I heared the news about his untimely demise. may his soul rest in peace with God Almighty. his passion and his enthusiasm is unmatched... To his wife and kids... I offer my family's prayers.
Our deepest & sincerest condolences to the Irwin family.
Steve was a great part of our lives for many years. Hearing the news of his death was like hearing the loss of a dear and close family friend. Hours were spent watching him on tv. My son still has the post card and letter from Steve that was sent for his 6th birthday...and it was because of Steve that he got his love of snakes and lizards. He learned not to be afraid of nature but to respect it and in fact be in awe of it. The Crocodile Hunter's legacy will go on through future generations...but the man himself will greatly be missed.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you... The Gentile's St. Louis, MO
I just wanted to express my most sincere condolences to Terri, Bindi Sue, Bob, Wes, Steve's Dad and all Steve's extended family at Australia's Zoo. He is going to be terribly missed by his fans. Those of us sitting at home that never get to travel, got to experience the world of animals out there. All thanks to this wonderful man that absolutely made his love of animals infectious. What a beautiful spirit he had. You all have a big job to do keeping that Zoo flourishing till one day when Steve's dream comes true and his children can take over his legacy. Watching his TV shows, you can definitely tell how much his loved his family and all God's creatures. Steve Irwin, Croc Man, you will be missed. Sincerely, Tammy in Indiana
MY deepest condolences to The entire Irwin family and friends. Steve in my eyes is a legend and idol. He is missed alot by my entire family.We all watched every episode of croc hunter things numerous times and seen the movie alot. I look up to steve termendously his loss is felt in my heart I know. A great father and conservasionist his loss is felt by many my thoughts and paryers with you all. Brandon, Bonner Springs KS, USA
Terri, Bindi, and Bob... our thoughts and prayers are with you. Steve was beloved by millions and did so much good work. He lived more in his 44 years than most people live in 100.
I was so deeply saddened to hear of your Loss , Steve was a Legend in more ways than one. His Love for Animals was fantastic as was his Love for his Family & Friends. When I heard of his Passing it felt like my heart would brake then I thought of the Children Bindi & Bob and how lost they must feel. But I know they have wonderful People at Australia Zoo looking after them , the People Steve trusted with his own life more than once he is now in trusting the lives of his Children to them . But now when I think of Steve I think of all the Animals that he is seeing for the first time and saying ( By Cracky would you just look at this little Beauty ) and I`m talking about animals that left this earth many years ago that none of us have ever seen because they died out because there was No Steve Irwin to teach us about them and why we needed to take care of them.
Terri , You have wonderful Memories that no one else has and You had a one of a kind Man , A True hero and a Legend in his own time , The two of you had a Wonderful life and the Greatest times together. Just remember the good times and it will help you get through this tragic time in your life , and cling to the People that he loved the most.
Bindi & Bob , the two of you have one of the best Father`s God ever put on this earth , for some reason that we can not understand God needed your Daddy`s help. When you grow up follow in his foot steps and you`ll never go wrong , Keep his dreams and life style alive in everything you do and you will be able to keep him with you forever.
