Posted by This is going to be rather short and to the point.
My brother, Bob, passed away February 19th. With no wife nor children, my other brother, sister, and I are the only family/heirs. Since I found out of his passing, I, along with my brother, Rick, have been inundated with his estate and everything that goes along with that. No Will. No paperwork. We are kind of flying blind.
We have already been to Texas once and are leaving again this Sunday for about/at least a week. There is more work, more discussions, and more of everything – trying to figure out what and how to do things to the best of our ability.
Bob lived in Texas for about 35 years. There’s much to deal with on our end. On top of that, I’ve been sick for the past 13 days, so, you know….it all happens at once, right?
Draft #7 is on hold for now, but I do have two events coming up on March 22/23 AND another on March 29. (Shower of Crafts Art Fair at the College of Dupage for the first one and the latter one is the Easter Market at Orland Park Civic Center – both in Illinois)
Trying to keep it together in a world that is collapsing all around us.

OMG!! I am SO SORRY to learn that you are sick!!I certainly hope that you can recover quickly, especially because I image that all the stuff about Bob can be sad/disturbing/overwhelming/demandingand relatively unfamiliar. If there’s any actual way that I can help/offer support/or even take on some of your “chores,” please let me know when it’s convenient for you! (The LAST thing I want to do is add to your burdens!!) Although I don’t know all the details, I sincerely appreciate whatever you have been doing and will do to take care of/ manage whatever things in regards to Bob. Please feel better soon, and when/if you have a chance, let me know if there is ANYTHING I can do to help you!!
I feel sad/bad/weird about Bob, but there is very little that I feel like I could do. If there’s something I could do to help you from here, please call or text (or communicate in whatever way is convenient for you). Even if you just want to call and be sad or complain, know that I am available. (Also, if whatever costs you have incurred from traveling to Texas or anything related to Bob, please let me know and I will be glad/honored to provide some reimbursement if his “estate” doesn’t or can’t contribute.) Please make sure you TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!! Love, Carol Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS
