Very sorry for your loss Ronnie. No two experiences are the same but I had a similar experience late last year. Got a call from the police that my older brother had been found that moring at home 3 days after his 52 birthday and 10 months after our mother passed. Our mother had died in November 2016 and we were all very close. Her passing and other personal challenges proved to be too much for him. I spread his ashes from our boat in our lake where we spread our parents ashes and where we have owned a cottage since 1965. This lake is where we shared many of our best life memmories and the same lake that he saved me from drowing in when he saw me, yelled for our parents and our mom pulled me out as I was floating face down at 4 years old in 1971. I love him and I miss him as you miss your brother. My thoughts are with you. We all have both good and difficult memmories of our loved ones and what I can offer is that the good memmories grow stronger with time while the difficult memmories tend to fade. Hug his son often, share your best memmories of his father with him and find comfort in each other. My thoughts are with you. God bless.

Ron, sorry for your loss. Lost my brother also to drugs last year. Tough on everyone except the deceased.

No boat, back in the suds.
