Whenever his sister was in a bad mood or unhappy, he would make her smile and his presence would make her feel better. He loved to hear his mother sing to him the “ABC’s” - he would talk and laugh. When his dad came close by, he would open his mouth – knowing he was about to get a kiss. Although he was very young, already he was showing his sense of fun and humor.
