Hey Ron, so sorry to hear.
Thoughts and prayers coming your way for you and the whole family.
36 is way to young to die. Sounds like maybe a heart attack though.

Re: sad day

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. To lose someone so young with a small child is truly a tragedy.

When you can bring yourself to do it, sit down and write out a diary of all the fun times you shared with your BIL/Best Friend.
Include any conversations or insights the two of you may have shared. Some day you will have a nephew that will have lots of questions about his father and the memories that seem so vibrant now will have faded with time. The only connection your nephew will have are photos and such. It will be up to you and others who loved Kelly to bring those photos to life.


May God grant you strength to face the difficult days ahead.

Re: sad day

To touch on PH's comment, try to make a video diary of the good and bad times.
Like he said, the young one will want to know all he can about his dad.

Awwwww, Ron. That's is really awful.:'(

My half brother's dad died suddenly like that when Don was 2. He was 42. Don knows his dad through pictures and stories told him by me and the rest of the family.

That is an important mission for you and others who loved Kelly. He can still live for his son through your memories.

Re: sad day

Ron, no family deserves that type of loss or sorrow……………..It may not seem it now, but strong faith in God and family coupled with the passing of time, will help all to go on…….our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.
