He passed after suffering from a painful and multi-month-long disease at the age of 81.
Besides his loving wife, he had three beautiful daughters.
Losing a twin is a profound experience, often feeling like losing a part of oneself.
Here are some things I have to remember during this difficult time:
Acknowledge the Unique Bond: Twins often share a close, almost instinctive connection. Recognizing this deep bond and the significance of your relationship can help you honor your shared memories and the unique connection you both hold.
Take Time to Grieve: Grief from losing a twin may be more intense and prolonged, so allow yourself the time and space to feel your emotions. Be patient and gentle with yourself; this journey is uniquely personal.
Find Comfort in Connection: Many find comfort in maintaining a symbolic connection to their twin, whether by talking to them, praying, or keeping cherished memories alive.
Seek Support: Consider talking to others who have experienced sibling loss or a grief counselor. Support from others can be incredibly comforting, especially when it feels like no one else can understand the depth of your loss.
Celebrate Their Life: Honor their legacy by sharing stories, carrying forward your shared values, or engaging in activities you both enjoyed. This can create a feeling of continuity and tribute to your bond.
God bless Larry.
