"I am so proud of who you are and what you've accomplished. We were talking about this being a possibility a decade ago and to see it actually happen is too much for me to handle," Marcus wrote.
At the end of his post, the proud bro clinched his sweet message with the best victory plans a little sister could ask for: a special trip to Wawa.
You deserve a good hoagie after winning a gold medal.
