My heart is heavy... Life is so short. My Uncle Johnny died today. He was such a great man. What I remember the best about him is that he was always there to help others... He was always taking care of his mom. He was a son, a husband, a father... and many of other things to many people. It is just so sad... There are so many unanswered questions... All I know is his wife came home from work and found him in the backyard. The police are treating his death as a homicide. Hopefully, there will be some answered questions soon. But it won't take the pain away that his loved ones are feeling.
Since I found out about his death about 2 hours ago my mind has been racing in every direction... I'm worried about my family... praying for everyone... wishing I was home with my family... thinking about how short life is and compiling a list in my mind of people in my mind that I need to be sure to spend time with. My granddad... my great-grandmother... And at this very moment... should I reach out to my father...
I don't know... this is just hard. Cherish every moment you have with your loved ones... you never know which moment will be the last.
Love

Wow! My heart goes out to you. Dealing with death is a very hard thing especially under suspicious circumstances. Although the hurt in your blog is clear, I think the reflection aspect of your grief is healthy and will provide tremendous personal growth during this difficult time in your life.
