A moment to grieve..

It sure sometimes seems as though one family gets far more than their fair share of loss, tragedy, and grief.The Ammann/Gobeli family is faced again with laying to rest, another son. It is with great sadness that we will,for a time,say good-bye to Bradley Earnest Ammann. Our families began in great friendships and remain today, only strengthened, through a child that sealed a bond that already existed between us. Brad was the father of my nephew Cody(my sisters son).His sister Pam who has been one of our closest friends for life...his parents who are without a doubt, like "adopted" parents to me and are my nephew Codys grandparents. We are family on so many levels. ...so it seems that Brad lost his battle with depression and what seemed at times like, the deepest sadness... He undoubtedly loved his son,his family and his wife and stepchildren,even though His sadness finally called him home. He was a great part of many of my funniest memories and to say he will be missed is an understatement.As i mentioned before that this is the second son to be laid to rest...a few short years ago,Brads youngest brother Zachary was laid to rest at the early age of 24...to be frank, they have been through hell and are in great need of our help.The younger brothers death sent his parents into early retirement, hardly able to deal with the grief, while also taking partial custody of young Zacharys daughter.Their financial stability has taken great hits through all of the loss.Brad will be laid to rest in Wisconsin. His son and closest loved ones could really use any bit of help possible as the need to travel to Wisconsin,take time off work,grieve,and lay Brad to rest are all immediate and pressing needs. If you have any ability or desire to help in absolutely any way they sure could use some love from this community.
