Lost My Brother today

[Papa Zook]

My older brother Terry passed today, he had a fall a couple of weeks ago and the pain would not go away so he went to the hospital for tests and they discovered a large tumor on his liver that had already metastasized. Between the aggressive chemo and radiation treatments he sure didn't last long.

Sorry for your loss. That's the part I don't like about getting old. Friends and family start moving on more quickly. The best I can hope for is a long, fruitful life and a peaceful passing.

Randy you have our Thoughts and Prayers for you and your Family.........
God Bless.........

 

[Papa Zook]

Thank you all for your prayers, you all are my extended family and what a blessing it has been getting to know each of you. Terry was not in good health, he had become sedentary and had lost his passion for life, after his youngest daughter Connie had committed suicide a few years ago.

She was the sweetest and kindest young lady and had gone through an unwanted breakup with the father of her young daughter Layla. Terry and his wife Toni adopted Layla and raising her became Terry's mission in life. I gave them a new ATV and they loved to ride it together every day.

Friends, we all know that life can throw us unexpected curves but the compassion and support for one another here is a testament to this community's higher purpose. Thank you all for your friendship and support for me and my family and your fellow members and also for your daily contributions to the community's knowledge base.

So sorry to hear about this - I lost a sister about 4 years ago, Way to young.

Just try to remember the great times - it helped me.

 

[GrumpyVet]

Sorry for your loss. It's been 4 years since my 48yo brother passed unexpectedly from an aneurysm. It's said that time heals all wounds, I beg to differ. May you find strength in the Lord and know we are thinking of you.

Amen Kevin, you are so right.. The passing of one's parents is really tough, so many memories, they loved and cared for us, raised us and made us who we are.

The passing of a sibling is among other things a reality check. It reminds us that the clock is ticking and we are not too far behind. I see some course corrections I will be making.
