Gone but not Forgotten

Last Friday, my cousin Tim died of throat cancer, he was just 47 years old, he leaves behind a wife of 10 years and 2 small children the boy age 6 and the girl age 9.


With life comes death, but what makes this particularly tragic aside from leaving behind a wife and children is the fact that my Aunt Muriel has now lost all 3 of her children, the first child was Leslie, he died in 1968 at age 1, he was born with a severe heart defect, tragic but expected, fast forward to 1985 and her only daughter Shelly anne was then aged 16, she was abducted on her walk home from school, she is presumed deceased, the police found some of Shelly annes belongings and clothes in the bushes, they had blood on them but no body was ever found,she simply vanished, Lastly last Friday her last remaining child Tim passed away.

My Aunt Muriel and Uncle Sandy are devastated and will most likely never find true peace, Cheryl (Tims wife) is torn up bad, but has to be strong for her children since my Aunt and Uncle can not, I am more concerned for Tims wife and children than I am for my Aunt and Uncle, that may sound wrong on many levels so this is how I see it, Cheryl seemed to be Tims soul mate, he worshipped the ground she walked on and visa versa, you could literally feel the love for each other when they were together, and Tim was a very devoted Father,he lived for his children and wife. Aunt Muriel and Uncle Sandy got to be with Tim for 47 years, while Cheryl and the kids did not, as I see it, we have a large family and I am worried that some members of my family will push Cheryl and the children out or at the very least try to do so.

My family certainly are not a picture perfect family like the Waltons, no , my family is full of self righteous backstabbing asswipes, most of which I have very little to do with, I avoid them not only for my own sanity, but to protect my wife and son from their thieving conniving backstabbing ways,not all my family is this way, just the majority,there are a few good people in the family and I hope they surround Cheryl and the Children and watch over them , I do what I can for her and the children but I am 1200 miles away,travel for me right now is not an option,but I have helped ensure her bills are paid and have offered her and the children my home should she need to get away for awhile , my Brother is up there in Alberta with her making sure the family dont try any funny business with her.

Anyway, RIP Tim , you will not be forgotten, nor will your family
