Dear Tim,
 
I really could not believe that you could write such outrageously demeaning and derogatory things about John. To write such things about him shows not only disparage and disrespect for his life, but also his passing. He never at any point in time gave you permission to write such things about him. If he gave you permission to do so at your moms funeral, then I strongly disagree with that comment! He did not even know that he was sick at that time! John was far from "illiterate" and did not spend his life in the drunken and "high" state that you professed in your story. If you have had problem in your finances, then you have no-one but yourself to blame. Think on that one!! I think that an apology should be written for your unthinkable remarks. Those of us who really knew John and loved him are appalled!! Maybe you should think a little bit more before you write such crap!
 
John's love - Brenda
