Hubby's coming home
Another of Gregs aunts died, so he's on his way home to attend her funeral tomorrow. 2 weeks ago we went to his other aunts funeral, and last week his cousin (who was born the same day as Greg) died of a stroke in Michigan.
While he wasn't extremely close to any of them in recent years, it's a lot of loss in a short period of time. This also leaves him with one uncle and his mother as the only ones still alive in that generation of his family. It's his mother that's likely feeling the loss more deeply. This was a loss of her sister in law, nephew, and now her only sister. Here's hoping 3's the limit and we're done for now.

That is a lot of loss in a short time. I'm so sorry Tink. I hope your husband is okay.
Hugs and prayers,

Sorry you and your husband are going through another death. We went through the 3's when my two uncles and a cousin died within a year of each other. Not a good year for my Dad (when he was still living.) They were his brothers and one's son. Prayers for you and your husband.

I'm so sorry Tink. I understand how you feel. It seems we only just lost a beloved uncle...and now my grandfather...and we have another uncle (who we aren't as close with now as we were growing up) whose health is very poor and probably won't live very long.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, your husband, and your family. *hugs*

Losing so many is probably harder on your husband then he's letting on. I'll be praying for the family.
