As for your question. That error pretty much always means that you are missing a closing brace. And, you are missing the one to close out the class. Just add that at the end and it should be good to go.
I'm not sure if it was just how your code copy/pasted, but indentation is very important, especially when you need to check closing braces.
Keep Coding :)
