Well, shit, you guys: my Uncle Leon died early this morning, shortly after midnight.
It’s beyond crazy that he made it one year and a few minutes after my Aunt Donna’s passing, given how sick he was last year at this time. I’m so grateful that we had his voice & love & feisty sense of humor around to keep us company for so long.
I don’t really know what else to say except that I’ve never known anyone as positive as my Uncle, let alone an 11-year lung cancer survivor. Obviously I’m going to miss him.
We’re headed to Kansas next week.
