My Uncle Laurie passed away today. He had been ill with cancer and today he died. He was a good man. Uncle Laurie was my Moms only brother; he was married to my Aunt Betty Jo with two sons (Tim and Ed) and one granddaughter Sarah. My uncle was a quiet man who drove a truck for as long as I knew him. He will be greatly missed.
The last time I saw him was at the family reunion in Missouri. I didn’t get to talk to him for very long because I spent most of the afternoon in the emergency room with my dad, but Hubby did. Hubby is wonderful that way. I am pretty sure he talked at length to everyone there. Uncle Laurie was already sick at that time but was in remission or it was very slow growing then. In the last few weeks/months he had been having a lot of trouble. Today he gets to start the next adventure.
We all love you so very much Uncle Laurie, we will miss you. We all love you so very much Aunt Betty Jo, Tim, Ed and Sarah. Our hearts and thoughts are with you.
