My heart goes out to you and your family. I’m JR’s oldest sister by another mother. I didn’t get to know him very well due to interruptions of life. But I just want you to know I did care about him very much. I just lost my husband of of 52 years on Dec. the 28, 2020. I feel your pain of loss and pray for your comfort. I learned from my own experience that there are no real words that can ease your pain . I’ve been praying for you. God bless.
