I don't want to say anything bad about my uncle cause I did love him, but he was a real hard person to get along with. He had his opinion on things and was hell bent on knowing he was right. He was a very smart man. Very intelligent. To be honest with you I don't know what grade he dropped out in, but he had the knowledge of someone who had been in college for many years. I just don't know why he didn't use the brains the good lord gave him. Jerry, like his son Wayne, had some real issues in his life. That side of my family really had issues, and I can't quite understand why. I'm not saying that we all don't have issues, but my uncle and his family was really disturbed. In more ways then one. I hate it that my uncle had these issues, but I really believe that alcohol was a big factor in his downfall in life. I'm really surprised that he didn't die with something related to alcohol. And it may have been. But from what I've been told he died from pneumonia brought on my inhaling some food particals. He may of been able to live, but when the doctor ask him about being put on a resporator, he refused any help to keep him alive. I guess he was tired of living. And now that his mom, sister, and oldest son had died I guess he was ready to go too. Especially feeling he had nothing to live for. None of the family really got along with him. I think it was because it was my mothers baby brother and she was his care taker, and let us all know that. My oldest brother really resented that. I myself understand it, for some strange reason, I do. I was never jealous of Jerry, I actually felt sorry for him. But when mom died she wanted us to let Jerry live in her home and to give him her car. I didn't care about all that, but I knew Jerry would destroy that car, and he did. I never understood that part. Keep giving into him when he wasn't going anywhere in life. He was an alcoholic and now that mom was gone, he was for sure gonna go down hill. And sure enough he did. I was really shocked that he lived as long as he did after mom died. Well I guess he is better off , I really don't know. I am a believer and Jerry never accepted Jesus, as far as I know. When I tried to talk to him about God, he always was real bitter. I don't want to believe that Jerry isn't in Heaven, but theres nothing that gives me the belief that he is. I just pray that everything we believe while here on earth about heaven and hell or all a big miss understanding. And who am I to say where he may be. I do pray he's in peace. |
