Dave, I can’t help but to reply to your heartless comment. We are all entitled to our opinions, however just know that when you post such a heartless statement during a time of a griefe, your opinions become hurtful words during a very painful period. My uncle may not be someone who you find to be entertaining, however as a human being he was one of the most loving, generous and wonderful people that I’ve ever known. Again, have your opinions but stop and think about your timing….you may think he lacked talent, but you my friend lack so much more.
