Jess "Bro" Causey, Jr.

[Unome]

March 15th of this year he would have made it to 40 if he had lived. Struck down Dec. 1983 by aneurysm and finally passed away on Dec. 22, 1983. Gone at 20 yrs. of age. Missed everyday by his family. In final days, he wasn't coherent that much after operation and we knew he would never be same and probably have to go to nursing home had he lived. Guess he's better where he's at.

But night before he died, I did get to sit with him a couple of hours and tell him how much I loved him and wanted him to get better so we could do more things together. From look on his face, he seemed to understand what I was saying to him. Next day, he was able to tell our mother "I love you" as plain as day and then drifted off.

Wish I had a few more hours to apologize for being an ass sometimes when we were growing up. Tried to explain to my kids that being ass towards younger siblings might bite back one day.

RIP, Bro. I'll see you again one day.

Well, rode to his gravesite back on 12/29/03. Will the part about missing them so damn bad ever get any better?

Be at peace with this Unome because Jess is at peace. You will be with him again.

Visiting him in the cemetery is your way of telling him that you love him. I frequently visit my parent's graves and place flowers or little items that have meaning to me or my sister.

Don't wish to not miss him. It is the missing him that keeps him alive and vibrant in your heart. It also sends a constant message to you about just how valuable every day is. Every day is a gift.

Amen, my dad passed 12 years ago and I still miss the heck out of him and think of him all the time wondering if he is proud of the family I have created and the things I accomplish daily. The only consolation I have is my wife who lost her mom on xmas day a little over a year after I lost my dad. Togther we pull eachother through the bumps in the road. It does get easier but like everyone said before me, if you ever start forgetting then they are not with you in your heart any longer so I hope those feelings never leave till I meet him again someday. He probably is up there cutting up with my wifes mom cracking jokes about us.

[wrencher]

unome. my first reply to you was not a good one.the pain does not go away thats the worst part about missing someone you love,but as several others have mentioned you have your memories.again I am sorry for that previous post.

[Unome]

Wrencher, I did not take any kind of offense to your post. I figured it was meant in same manner as other folks' posts. I gotta agree with everyone that as long as the pain is there, the memory lives on and that's what is important.
