Sorry to hear about your brother.

Hang in there, prayers are with you.

I've lost my youngest brother, the youngest kid in a group of six.

I've lost my sister who was two years younger than me.

I've lost my older brother, the oldest of the six and his birthday was yesterday, April 11.

He would have been 68.

Unimaginable & Unthinkable

Will,

I can’t imagine the grief you have to be experiencing, especially with him being your twin brother.
The best of marriages and friendships don’t last that long ; since birth, you two have been connected.

He is part of whom you’ve become, who you are and in turn, you for him as well. So your loss is more
enormous and consequential than I can begin to understand having only a older sister. The relationship
that develops between siblings is ever so strong and if or they are twins, it’s even more intense. But the
bond forged between identical twins is what folklore tales are based upon. It is rare, unique and special.

As the Irish like to toast.....May he be in heaven a full half-hour before the devil knows he’s gone.
Please know I will pray for him & make it a point ask my departed friends and relatives to say hello.
Each of has a destiny; yours has been blessed with many decades of love and memories with him.

I do very much hope your grief passes faster than you think possible. Indeed, as a noteworthy figure
is known for remarking, there will come a time when your brother’s memory will bring a smile to your
lips before it brings a tear to your eyes. Hopefully it’s sooner than later & I offer my sincerest condolences.

My identical twin brother Willis passed away today. This crushes me to my very core.

He has many friends who are AZB participants, as he went to several pool/billiard events with me each year, like the Hopkins SBE and others.

We were best friends since the day we were born, over 71 years ago, and spoke almost daily. I am heartbroken.

I'm so sorry to hear this Will. No one is closer than identical twins, like two parts of a whole. My sincere condolences to you my friend.
