I feel a little bit dazed at the moment. I just heard from my niece Heidi. She just wanted to let me know that the boys Uncle Dave has passed away. Heidi thought I would like to know. You know its funny but I was only thinking about the boys father, Vic, & his brothers earlier today. I don't know why I was thinking of them but I was.
I hadn't really seen all of that side of family since Vic's Dad passed away in December 1998 & considering Vic & I split up in 2000 I had no need to see them. Its still a bit of a shock to find out though. I feel bad for Vic. It must've been hard for him to be the one to find Dave. I know how hard it was (and is) for Mark when he found our neighbour Mick.
To be honest we all thought that Dave would be the first to go (but he wasn't Tom was). He drank alcohol like there was no tomorrow and I guess it finally caught up with him.
Heidi said she was going to give Vic our phone numbers again. Apparently he's lost them. No surprises there. If he phones I'll talk with him but I don't know if the boys will. Brodie is still pretty angry at him. I'm not too sure about Angus though.
