It turns out, they both had cancer at the same time - he had brain cancer, and she had pancreatic cancer. Now, they've died only five months apart. Their kids are only (I think) maybe 19 and 20.
Hopefully they have trusted family and did estate planning.
I already did mine. We have two more steps to go...my son graduates in May and we are selling the house after my middle child completes his Associates in December.
Then I can pass knowing I did my best for them.
How incredibly sad for those poor kids.

A broken heart is a terrible, deadly malady. Same type thing happens much more frequently then realized generally. Steve Reeves and his wife for example. RIP.
There are no words for this. Tim was a wonderful human being. Apparently his wife was the same. May God Bless those two children. They obviously have much to grieve about.
A couple much less famous here in michigan had similar. Both vaxed he diabetic, went on a lung machine november, died in January. She had liver failure in june. Died in july. Very healthy before jabbed. One 18 daughter, 20 son. The virus is beatable, the vaxx is deadly.
Started out as an outfielder but wasn't a very good hitter, started experimenting with a knuckleball and the rest is history.
Sad footnote. The founder of the Paper Store chain, with their original store in Maynard, Massachusetts, when DEC was a powerhouse, and his wife, both had cancer at the same time. Both died on the same day in Emerson Hospital, in Concord, on the same day. I am told by people who were closer to them than I am, that the survivor never knew of the other’s death.
So sad. RIP.
I had not heard of Tim’s passing since moving out of MA. He was a helluva guy. I has a sad this morning. Prayers for the kids.
