5 Years Since Your Transition, Austin!

July, 24, 2015. I just want you to know, I'm thinking of you, Baby Brother. I know you don't like me to call you that, but you will always be my baby brother. Love you.

Farewell, My Brother, My Friend!



Two thirds of the 3 amigos are now gone. Harold Michael Newell transitioned Friday evening, July 11, 2020. He lasted 5 years plus since the doctors gave him only months. Harold was his own man and he was not afraid to die. He was just too tired fighting death for so many years. Death can be relentless and torturous. He finally beat my brother down. At least I got to speak with while he was in good spirits. Harold was my friend since childhood. Our friendship lasted over 56 years. Now he and Bobby can go fishing. I miss them both.



You are in my prayers, Dorothy.
