David Wydeck

I couldn't get up & speak infront of everybody at the funeral, but this is what I would have said. You were more like a brother to me than a cousin. You were only 3 months older than me & you wouldn't let anybody forget it lol. You were my first cousin ever & one of my best friends. We grew up doing everything together from childhood to late teen years. We swam in the pond & gravel pits, we trick-or-treated with pillow cases, we went to Bitely Days with the whole family, we made random forts in the woods on Buchanan, we went to football games together, we babysat your younger siblings, we walked around both trailer parks & down Buchanan with mutual friends, we rode the bus together sometimes, you made sure I did NOT lose my first fight because I was a Wydeck lol, we were so excited when our daughters were born close in age just like we were!! We drifted apart for a while, but became close again the last couple years and I can't thank God enough for allowing us to create a few more recent memories as adults. We had deep conversations & MANY laughs. One of the last times I seen you in person was at our cousins open house during the summer when you came with Gran. We walked out back just the 2 of us and had another heart to heart conversation on the way. Then the last time we messaged in October, you told me you were so sorry about Davi. You loved all of us so much. You were the best big cousin ever. I will never forget you and you are already missed beyond measure. Willow & Bowen will be okay, you know how much our family loves those babies!! Tell my Daddy that I miss him, too. I love you "bro"!!

I don't really have any words. I just want to mention that the obituary was supposed to say preceded in death, stepdad, Richard McGraw. I am sure you are with him, probably talking about cars.
