Sorry to hear this Rich, my deepest sympathies to you and your family. Its so hard losing a close family member. 57 is too young to go [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
What terrible couple days with your brother, Rahphs Grandma and Stu...geeze whats going on.....
Rich ...you are one of my very best friends here . My heart sunk when I read this . Words can't define how you feel and what I could possibly say to you.
There was a pretty good age difference between you and your brother and I see what you mean about being there as a father figure as well..
well you know I don't believe in "the Afterlife" but if there is one ...then he is with both are lost loved ones..and us when it's time.
Rich do what it takes to get you through and most of all just take care of yourself ..
I wish I lived closer to visit you ..
much love and respect ,
Bill

Thanks, Bill, and again thanks to you all. I realize why you're disillusioned about the afterlife Bill, but I believe in it and believe you'll see your grandmother and any other loved ones again, and that I will too.
If I'm wrong, I'll never know I was wrong, know what I mean? I've prayed for your grandmother; I hope you don't mind, but you're my good friend and you loved her, so I do too even though I never met her.
Ron, services haven't yet been held, but will be held back here in Mississippi. My brother wanted to be cremated, and his ashes spread along the Gulf Coast and in New Orleans. We have a family plot here where a headstone will be put, and the memorial Mass is on Saturday, August 14 at 5:15 PM Central Time. The delay is because his remains have to be released by the coroner, then cremated and shipped. That will take that amount of time to do.
Thanks again everyone for your kind words. We appreciate it very much.
Please You take care of yourself Rich and your family...
and I just learned about Stu ...this is not a good morning...not at all. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
I think I'll stay off this board for today ...I'm just a little too upset at the moment .
respectfully your friend ,
Bill
