He had not been able to have much of an influence in his grandsons life because his ex-wife raised the boy, and she is a very bitter woman (she had an affair and left him over 40 years ago, but is still hateful to this day?).
Michael was found in a motel room dead of an apparent overdose on his 24th birthday. It was just an unbelievably tragic thing.
The actual funeral was at the mortuary chapel, and my brother officiated the service.

I do recall the prayer request. That is such a sad story especially how bitterness doesn't only effect the person carrying it, but also effects others.
My uncle died of an overdose at the age of 27 and that was a horrifically sad funeral--I still get a stomach ache thinking of it--I was like 11 yrs old at the time.
