    My older brother died before I was born, and this was my mother's favorite poem--it reminded her of him (he was 2 when he died). I am sorry for your pain.

    Little Boy Blue

    by Eugene Field (1850-1895)

    The little toy dog is covered with dust,

    But sturdy and staunch he stands;

    And the little toy soldier is red with rust,

    And his musket moulds in his hands.

    Time was when the little toy dog was new,

    And the soldier was passing fair;

    And that was the time when our Little Boy Blue

    Kissed them and put them there.

    "Now, don't you go till I come," he said,

    "And don't you make any noise!"

    So, toddling off to his trundle-bed,

    He dreamt of the pretty toys;

    And, as he was dreaming, an angel song

    Awakened our Little Boy Blue---

    Oh! the years are many, the years are long,

    But the little toy friends are true!

    Ay, faithful to Little Boy Blue they stand,

    Each in the same old place---

    Awaiting the touch of a little hand,

    The smile of a little face;

    And they wonder, as waiting the long years through

    In the dust of that little chair,

    What has become of our Little Boy Blue,

    Since he kissed them and put them there.

    I am so sorry to hear about your baby brother and your grandfather. It must be really rough to go through something like that! I am so terribly sorry!

    Brothers and sisters are as close as hands and feet.

    There's no other love like the love for a brother. There's no other love like the love from a brother. ~Astrid Alauda

    A brother is a friend given by Nature. ~Jean Baptiste Legouve

    Never make a companion equal to a brother. ~Hesiod

    One way to have heaven in your home, is to have someone you love in Heaven...I love you.

    Here is a good one:

    "A brother is a friend, given by Nature."

    More?:

    "My Brother, My Friend,

    I love my brother, my brother loves me,

    My friend, my hero, he always will be,

    In sundry ways our uniqueness is clear,

    He likes to go far, but I favor near,

    He likes to play sports and being outside,

    I prefer play music and play inside,

    Sometimes we fight and scream at each other,

    But he is my friend, for he is my brother."

    How about this line from one of the Marx Brothers' movies...

    "You love your brother don't you?"

    "No, but I'm used to him."

    If you really want a good quote about family, try the Godfather......

    "Little Brothers are people too, only younger"

    That is pretty bad, I guess...never mind.
