On social media, Madonna shared touching memories of her brother. She emphasized his impeccable taste and "sharp tongue," which he sometimes used against her, but she always forgave him.
The last few years were difficult. We weren't in touch, but when he got sick, we found each other again. I'm glad he's no longer suffering. There will never be another like him.
