Default My brother died today

My brother, Raymond, (48) was making deliveries of medical supplies and wasn't feeling good at one of his stops a Walgreen's in Tucson. He called 911, he had a seizure while they were putting him in the ambulance, they tried to revive him 5 times but could not bring him back. He has become an organ donor; my sister in Tucson was his emergency contact and she gave the consent. I feel really bad for my sister, today is her birthday.

Today in my Public Speaking class I gave a speech about Organ Donation.

I'm so sorry, Al. Crazy that the topic of your speech was what it was. Was that speech a blessing? Sorry for the question, I just see blessings in weird places.

Once again, I'm sorry you lost your brother today.
