At 49 Rest In Peace...very sad story...I really hope he is at peace now and I believe he is...my brother lived such a troubled life since at least high school...he battled alcohol and drug addiction since high school and could never conquer these addictions...he had stroke a few years back and the medical problems continued 1 after the other...he lived out west, so we did not see each other often, but he always sent our mother a card/gift for mothers day and called her, he did not call and she began to really worry and called the police...the police informed her of the bad news...so sad that this news came on mothers day and that he died alone.

I just really hope he is now at peace!

I took 2 things as sign's that he is...

1. it was suppose to be rainy this past weekend, it turned out to be sunny and beautiful...my brother loved the sun and was always outside on nice days.

2. he loved rabbits and on Monday there was 2 rabbits hopping around my parents back yard.

Thanks for letting me type this...

    I am so sorry to hear that, it is lovely that you saw those little signs though. My Mother says butterflies are a sign from her mother and I love that. Once again, my condolences.

    My most heartfelt condolences to you and your family. I lost someone close to me 3 months ago to alcohol abuse. I hope you, your family, and your brother all find the peace you deserve.
