All of the above would be welcome for my family right now.
On Tuesday night, my uncle was working in his woodshop and then decided to go for a bike ride. He lives in a rural area. While biking, he was hit by a car and killed.
My dad called me yesterday before I went to work, so I called in and we went up north to be with my aunt and cousins. All of the siblings except the one who lives in Tennessee was there yesterday, and he's driving up. Many of the cousins were there, too. We talked a lot and gave lots of hugs. My aunt admitted that she needed a distraction, so I brought out my phone and showed her pictures of my time in Bali and Singapore.
I hurt so badly for my cousins. This dear uncle was just fourteen months younger than my dad, and one said that her dad was her best friend. I'm also super close to mine, who taught me the ways of smoothness and puns, and just can't imagine. My good-hearted cousin wanted to hug the car driver, who is going to have to live with what happened. (It wasn't a drunk driver. Just, some really $hitty timing all around.)
My little nephew loved this uncle, too. Last weekend, he was down to help my brother get his hot rod started. My nephew grabbed two desserts from the house, and brought one out to give to my uncle and told him that he liked his "Blue F-150". (This nephew is three and loves cars.) He was already asking when he would see this uncle and his F-150 again.
I'm giving my uncle a kickass role in my next story. A heroic one.
