Loss Of Younger Brother

Recommended Posts

I got news Sunday morning from the Texarkana, Arkansas police that my younger brother passed away in a motel room. They told me he had kidney problems, which the family didn't know about. The police also informed me that he had been living in a homeless shelter, which I also didn't know about. I also found out that our uncle passed away back in 2006. Needless to say I got a boatload of good news Sunday. Talked to the coroner Monday afternoon, and of course he said we need to take care of the body immediatly. Can't stay at the morgue.

Needless to say, I'm still in shock since he was almost 49 years old.

Please accept our deepest sympathy, and know that you are being held in gentle thought and prayer.

You are not alone on this difficult journey, and I hope that you will feel welcome here. Please share the details of your stories of loss with us, and tell us what was special about your brother and your uncle.
