Lost my brother yesterday

My brother died yesterday from a heart attack at age 49. He leaves his wife, daughter and adopted son. He had just purchased a new home 3 weeks ago in Council Bluffs, IA. There just my sister and I left with our small families.

Thanks in advance for all of your thoughts and prayers.

Jim

Jim,
I'm very sorry for your loss and while I can't share your pain, know that you are not alone in your sorrow. Prayers to you and your family as they will need each other now more than ever.

I am very sorry for your loss. 49 is waaay too young (and today is my 49th b-day) to go. I lost my oldest brother 3 years ago, but he had been very sick for a long time and it was inevitable. It's a real shock to lose someone unexpectedly. My condolences to your brothers family.

Jim's thats just awful to hear at this time of year. I'm close to my brother and now that we are all in our 50's I get scared thinking about the future sometimes! I will say a prayer tonight so that God will comfort you and your brother's family!!!

Jim,

My heart grieves for you and your family. Words are of small comfort in times like this but that is all we have. Know that I and all of the others here in the KawaNOW "family" are sharing in your pain and loss.

Prayers for all of you have been made. May God bless and comfort you all in this tragic time.
