Belated Birthday to My Brother, Alfred

Happy Birthday,
Alfred Christian


My older brother would have been 47 years old on July 13 of this year (last Sunday).  Unfortunately, he was in a terrible car accident on June 15, 1980.  His Camero hit a tree head on, and he suffered head injuries and a broken leg.  He died a few days later on June 19. 

His sudden death was very traumatic to all of us.  It took me a long time to even start talking about it without crying so much.  I have been thinking about him this past week after my cat, Cap, had to be put to sleep last week.  None of us could imagine that Alfred was going to die young.
