Barb73 Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Dear All, I won't be on the board for a while. I need to take some time to asbsorb this, but I was told this morning, Tuesday, July 1, 2008, that my youngest brother, Donald McCarthy, died during the night of a heart attack. Apparently, although he was symptom free, and had regular medical exams, this occurred suddenly at age 62. He leaves his loving wife of 15 years, Jane McCarthy, his two sisters, (Claire and I, and brother, John), and a multitude of nieces and nephews. In shock. Barbara Quote
