My heart is heavy; a friend has passed Login/Join 
Keeping the economy moving since 1964

I found out late this morning that my best friend's older brother Tim passed away yesterday as a result of a freak accident he had last week. Tim was a lifelong union tin-knocker and one of the nicest guys I've ever known. Unfortunately he and my best friend (and the rest of his family) were estranged for reasons I've never understood. At the request of my best friend (who was understandably distraught and to the point of not being able to function), I called the owner of the company where Tim worked to get the details of his passing.

There's nothing worse (or perhaps more necessary) than passing along terrible news.

I'm sorry to hear of your friend's loss.

I hope you can find strength and stamina to stay strong for your best friend and family in their time if sorrow.

Sorry for your loss, and condolences to all that called him a friend and close family.
