Albert Jones 04/12/1951-06/20/1987 April 12, 2021 would have been his 70th birthday. His last birthday on earth was his 36th. I was with him on his birthday in 1987 with our mother and sister Toni - he was inpatient at Childrens Hospital in San Francisco. I have missed him every day he’s been gone. My heart aches that most of “my people” never knew him, never met him. However, they all know how broken my heart is over losing my brother. 💔 If you remember him or If you have a story about him, tell me, share it! Grief is a terrible, horrific experience. Grief never goes away. Grief changes over time. Grief can overcome you with a date on the calendar, a song, a smell, an article of clothing, a memory, a million little things. #grief #brother |
