Funeral
Recently I attended my cousins funeral in Palmerston North.
He was just turning 30 and had been married just 6 months ago ( I went to the marriage)He was killed when driving home in a unloaded truck with a passenger.Another fully loaded Truck coming the other way veered into his lane, the driver was said to have had a heart attack.My cousin was crushed, the passenger survived. Apparently he was very lucky as he was just in the right position.
My cousin had just bought his own house with his wife and was DIYing it to make it alot better.He had a wicked sense of humor and loved doing pranks..infact his hair was Grey they day he died because of a dare he had taken to dye it.He will be missed by his family, friends, wife and his dog Bo.
This marks the 3rd family member to have died this year. The others being my grandfather (mothers side) and grandfather (fathers side)
Its just a huge shock as he was the last person I would ever expect this to happen to.

I'm very sorry to hear that Wednesday....I'm not very good with words when it comes to things like this, but I hope you and your family, and especially his wife pull through this. It must be a huge shock.

My condolences... I know exactly what you're going through, and how much of a shock this is...
May god give you all the patience to somehow move on...

I'm so sorry
I usually don't know what to say when it comes to these things, wish I could say something more. Again I'm very sorry for your loss.

Sorry to hear it Wednesday. You never know if you will make it home each day. You think you will live forever but life is so delicate, and death has so many opportunities to whisk us away, that it reminds one to cherish what is really important in life, and to tell those close to you every day that you love them, and give them hugs often.
