Waiting for a death......

So after waiting almost 2 years to find out about this side of the family a obituary appears in the newspaper informing me of the death last year and the names of 2 people, the children of the person who died. These 2 I did not have listed on my tree. These 2 people will be in their 50's now I guess...

Very sad Mark that this person has died without you being able to make contact, as you know the names of the children perhaps you can trace them ? Post on the FLR board if you need some help.

MARK,
YOU WOULDN'T HAVE BE ABLE TO PUT THEM ON YOUR TREE
WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION ANYWAY WHILE THEY WERE/ARE ALIVE

sadly folks do things that to family are unfathomable

Our brother was devastated when his wife left him and he did try to end his life that fortunately wasn't successful .

After a few years he was ready to move forward and through a dating agency he met his new wife who was a widow with two boys.
His family including his siblings went to his wedding and were so glad he had found love again

Well he didnt stay in touch with his siblings other than a Christmas card that seemed to be sent after he got his card from each of us

Out of the blue he and his wife went to Spain to live , no BYE or this is our new address or nothing , very upsetting for us as a family as we had no way of keeping in touch

Sadly in 2001 he died suddenly in Spain .

He was buried in Spain and we did have a memorial service for him at our local church where all of us were baptised BUT his wife then disappeared off the scene

its very upsetting to family when this happens .leaves lots of unfinished questions

RIP to our brolher Stanley Brian Fasey born 5th MaY 1934
