I don't know ALL the details but my sister called and told me our uncle was murdered. He was threatened by some thugs were going to shoot him and he hid and slept at his many friends home for several weeks.
He apparently grew tired of this and said, "if they're going to kill me I want to be in my house". So he went home to sleep and they shot right there in his house.
He was an uncle that took me around the island fishing, to the beach, boating and such from his house in the country. My Dad will be crushed by all of this. :(
Peace the world needs more love in it.

There wasn't a post I ever read from you that I didn't notice the "PEACE." Most people are good.... it's just the few that make our existence a struggle. Be strong. Your family will get through this.

I should note, I'm not trying to be callous about this. This isn't a Yankee/Sox thing. Sports can be a nice diversion from life.

This is very hard to handle the sudden death of a family member. It's one thing to know of your family member's eminent death but when it's suddenly taken like this is a whole other story. I deal with death in the line of work that I do for a living and I've learned to distance myself from heavy emotions to properly continue and accomplish my work. However this is something else.
I spoke to my sister some more and my uncle last was staying at my Dad's house and told my Dad he's going home. Three men were seen around his house waited till he got home and asleep and shot him in the back of his head. This apparently had something to do with the large farming business he owned.
There's not much police force in the country unlike what we Americans are used to in the tourists areas in Jamaica. I gather he had enough of living scared and feared death no more, he must have felt his time to leave this earth had come.
Man I can't believe this has happened, such a horrible way to leave this life but at least he spent some time with his brother my Dad.
PJammers hug and love your ones we're only here for a short time and one never knows when those moments will be our last.
Peace & OneLove
