My dad Gary was only 38 years old when he died by suicide on January 27, 1986. He was a very active member of St Andrew’s Episcopal Church and active in the community as well. He was a funeral director at Greenwood Funeral Home. His departure from his family left a lasting scar and void that we still struggle to fill to this very day. I was just 5 years old when he died, my brother was 11 and sister was 16. It has taken me many years to find peace with what happened, but I have indeed found it. The thing that sticks with me now is all that HE lost. I lost my dad- he lost EVERYTHING. Oh how we miss him so deeply, to this very day. I thank you deeply for riding for him on your journey.
