My uncle Bob passed away today.
He had cancer.
Even though he had it, and it was sort of expected, it didn't make it any easier this morning when I found out.
I didn't want to believe that it had happened. I just sort of said "Okay" to my dad when he told me. I got off the phone there for a minute and just lied in bed. Then I took off and ran out of my room. I made it to my landing and just laid there and I cried. Then I moved upstairs and laid there and cried. And I continued to move around the house and just sob.
Uncle Bob was one of the best people that I have known in my life.
He had such a strong spirit, I just wish that his body would have matched that.
He was really a wonderful man. And I feel honored to have known him. I wish that I would have said more to him in while he was here.
I just got home, and I got out of my car and looked up in the sky, and I felt totally at peace. Seeing all the stars. For a minute I just felt like I had an arm around me holding onto me and comforting me.
