The Saints made it into another obituary

Oh My... How Sad... Please accept my sincerest condolences on the passing of your brother.

My brother passed in 2009... and with my mother in aging health at 77.. and all the things we have going on, business', property etc.... I really need him in my life and I counted on him to be here and help me as I aged... But he is not here... It was suicide.. I will never forget our last conversation... I wish that I had just told him that I loved him and to just come home.

and to make matters worse.. My cousin.. Born in 72... Who grew up with me on the farm.. Sat with my grandparents at the farm dinner table.. so many different things.. We were so close... He passed just two years ago just two weeks to the day after my birthday. We had been riding motorcycles... He drank himself to death... Alcohol Poisoning is a real thing people...

The irony with him is this... He was in the oil field.. He wanted to be in whatever the next project my family started in from the ground up... He was looking for a trailer to put by a lake to live as he was getting a divorce and stayed gone two weeks in the oil field and two weeks off...

1 year after his passing my family started working on building an RV park from scratch at Lake Texoma...

His ashes are buried here at the bottom of this Flag by the Highway and the Park Sign.... Such a bitter sweet display of irony.

I knew him since the day he was born... We were like Brothers... We spent many a night at the lake or at the Grandparents for Christmas day... His third wife of 1 year.. 1 year.. Who he hated and was divorcing got his Home, Truck, Harley, Tractor and all that property that he bought... and I got a memory and a 20 pound sledgehammer from the back of his truck.

Not that I wanted a Damned thing.. I just wanted him in my life... But when they say: "Life Ain't Fair and the World is Mean.".. They mean it.

Yes... I share your pain my Whodat Friend... I can only say that one day God will reveal all the reasons why to the questions that we don't understand today... "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. "

God Bless you my Friend...
