Life thows another rotten punch

Post by barbaranoela »

the young man in the picture with me is my Uncle Joe--he was 2 years older than me --both born in Sept. too-and when I spent my summers in Fall River--I tagged along with Uncle Joe BUT when with his friends I *better not call him uncle * :smile: just plain Joe---but knowing me it was UNCLE JOE!!!! and then torment from his friends--he was my buddy--
He developed colin cancer but being a very stubborn man---he would cure himself---no doctor---and he died at an early age------my aunt Bonnie took care of him at home--Uncle Joe had 2 daughters and a son Stevie--well today I got a call that my cousin Steve passsed away suddenly at the age of 50----
It has not been a good day---I called my Aunt Bonnie but no answer so I guess they are at Stevie;s house--

I still see that big boulder that xcited me cus I knew we were at Etna street In Fall River--

The end of a day----

Barbara--

So sorry, Barb. And poor Aunt Bonnie, to lose her husband and now her son at such a young age. Will keep you both in my thoughts.

Barbara,

I'm very sorry to hear that sad news. That's way too soon for anyone to leave this life on earth.

Love, Maggie
