He was a tenor, a prodigy guitar player, and he followed a long line of men in my family, that did something great but were 'ne'r do wells.

There's no putting up with, Kathy. I for one love your stories and am happy to share in your grieving for your brother. Having a few 'ne'r do wells in my family, now that I think about it, forget a few, think most. I still love and cherish them all. What maters in a person is not their bank balance, job title, size of their house, or level of success but the content of their heart. I would have loved to have meet your brother and sad I will never have a chance.

Good Lookin' and Good for Nothin'.....I bet I would have liked him a lot; he sounds like many of my good friends who have talents and virtues unrecognized by mainstream society.

I love my brother and I am going to scatter some of those ashes tomorrow. I studied them, they look like baby teeth. Tell me places. besides the bay and my lake, and our own mountain, special places, where I can let at least 10 lbs of him go.

Please do! Thanks for sharing Ron with us. It was a long hard journey, for Ron, and for you too, to watch him go through it. God bless you for being there for him.

I am very sorry for your loss Kathy. God bless. Losing a parent was one thing, but I imagine losing a sibling would be very difficult. I know it would be for me. My thoughts will be with you today.

Kathy, there is no "putting up with" with you. You are one of us. You are loved. You are hurting and we are here for you. This thread is a very touching reminder of how much you love your brother. You are letting it out, getting it down, and we are here with you through this. You are not alone.

Thanks guys, I'm trying to stay away from here! I'm so sorry I tend to write out my grief. I should go back to journeling, because I'm not seeking sympathy, just trying to understand my own head and heart.

Your sharing always touches deep cords with me, Kathy. It's always so hard to see our loved ones with so many gifts self destruct. It doesn't change the love, it just adds to the sadness. It's a beautiful tribute to Ron. Thank you.
