My best friend's daughter left me a short note to tell me that her father died last night. He and my friend were no longer married, but they remained friendly. Our kids all grew up together and we spent many wonderful years together before their split. I feel sick and I'm in shock. I don't know any other details and will have to wait until day-time. Please pray for the family, especially their 3 grown kids and the grandchildren. They might all be in their 20s, but that's pretty young to lose their dad. He was a young man for that matter!

Thanks everyone.
 
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and the family.

Thanks, everyone. I ended up over at my friend's house close to 4:30 AM since her daughter contacted me and told me she'd never seen her mom so bad. She has tons of guilt because of the divorce and that he basically gave up on life afterward. It was a messy situation at the time - too much beer and behavior that just couldn't be put up with anymore. They were high school sweethearts from around age 15 and were married a good 20+ yrs, so there were many good, happy years before things fell apart. He never stopped loving her, but some things just can't continue.

Waiting on the results of the autopsy since he "died in his sleep" at age 51! We're all pretty shook up. Their kids are like my other kids and vice versa. They grew up together and while they don't see each other often now, it's still family.

Please keep especially Christine, Rick, Mike and their mom in your prayers. Those "kids" are going to have a rough time of it, along with Chrissy's kids. The obit listed my friend as his "lifelong friend." And they were, despite the split. Calling hours and the service aren't until Fri. & Sat. I assume because of the autopsy.

Thanks again. I really appreciate it and I know they do as well. Sure does remind me that you ...just never know ...
 
My nephew's Dad basically drunk his self to death too. He developed sugar and still drank and didn't take good care of himself.

He was only in his mid 40's.
