First! Thank you for the thoughts.. ALL of you.
A couple things that make this worse: one: Distance, Both her son and I live in Oklahoma, she died in Pennsylvania. Two: my other cousin is in quarantine now because she had to deal with the nursing home in person.

Bad Company Singer Brian Howe died. Heart attack. He was largely responsible for “Holy Water”, which was my introduction to the band. Stole my dad’s copy of the disc and played it until it was so scratched it didn’t work anymore. RIP

Shad Gaspard, ex-WWE wrestler, went missing at Venice Beach on Sunday thanks to a riptide, having ensured that rescuers saved his son. I believe his body was recovered yesterday. He was 39.

Haven't heard anyone from the wrestling world have anything bad to say about the guy - sounds like he was a genuine good dude.
