 My newphew is dead
My nephew was painting a tower today (Sunday) and fell off and was killed. I found out at 12:30, just as I was going to bed. I went immediately to my sister, Judy's, and BIL's house. All the time I was hoping this was a terrible nightmare. When I got there, there were 2 policemen and a clergy that had come to give them the news. Judy is in Chicago for a calligraphy convention. She just left Saturday and was to be gone until the 30th. Now she will be flying home today and I can't stand it that she is away from family when she finds out her son is dead. He was alone when he fell and it happened sometime between 1 and 6. Rich was always my favorite...my little Richie. Even when he grew up, I always thought of him as my little Richie. I can't stand knowing he is gone and I will not get to see him again here on earth. He just emailed me a picture he took of himself on the tower about a week ago. My gosh...I just can't stand this...I love him so much! Please pray for Rich's family. He is with my Mom and Dad now, but we all are here without them. |
