Graduate Zachary Storm Coakley- Harrisonville High School- Class of 2012.
I am very grateful for the opportunity to fly home and watch my one and only brother graduate. I wanted a sibling for years and years, then I started middle school and gave up hope. Until one day my dad shocked me, by taking to me lunch and telling me that I was finally going to be a big sister! He says that I said, I didn't need a little sibling now that I was in middle school and had a locker. HA!
Storm was born and because of the 11+ years between us, we did not have the typical brother-sister childhood. I was his babysitter and chauffeur quite often. Then when he was only 7 years old, I moved away to college. And after college, I started dating the love of my life and took on a great adventure by moving to Italy with him. Storm and I always remained close to one another- even through years of great distance. And now that he is becoming an adult we are able to connect in a whole new way. I am so lucky to have my little brother and I was very proud watching him cross this stage. Congratulations Storm! Sissy loves you! Always.
