Got a phone call last night from my father at 10:43... I knew something was up... he informed me that my little brother had just passed away... it was a shock but I can't say it was a surprise... he lived a hard life of drug abuse among other problems... he was living with my mother... told her he didn't feel well and sat down on the couch.... shortly after slumped over dead... suspecting a heart attack due to his drug abuse but who knows... I hope now he's in a better place and rid of the demons that possessed his life... I haven't seen or heard from him in 20 years... but it's still a weird feeling... not sure what to really feel right now... Rest In Peace my brother... he was only 38 years old...

Sorry for your loss. Drugs can get ahold of anyone, they do not discriminate. Prayers to you.

Wow, That's a jolt! Sorry to hear of his passing.
Regardless or his choices, you have to carry his loss and that's tough no matter how it came.
Hang in there and remember the good times. Thinking of you!

Condolences to you and your parents. Even being estranged from a family members doesn't make the blood line any thinner. Prayers of peace and discernment to you and your folks.

Sorry for your loss prayers for your family. I went through very similar circumstances five years ago but my brother killed himself, Because of drugs. Your brother and my brother Are no longer chasing demons as you say they are in a much better place. Your family don’t have to worry about him anymore it takes that monkey off of your back it sounds crazy but it’s true and that comes from my mother.

Cinch;
Good morning to you sir, please accept my condolences and know my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
In cases like you've described, I believe we more or less say goodbye in increments to these family members or friends who go astray that way.
We've said goodbye to them for so long that when they're finally passed, it's tough to articulate exactly how we feel. At least that's been my experience sir.

Very sad.
I worked at a hospital for 14 years. If it is any consolation to you, at least, your poor brother passed away peacefully, in his sleep at home.
For many patients, it is an ambulance ride to the hospital, and a week in ICU, and then a year or two at the nursing home before they finally, mercifully, pass on.

Damn. Condolences to you and your family.
The estrangement may leave you a bit conflicted in all this - go easy on yourself, friend.
