Tragic loss of young dad

On Tuesday November 7, while getting ready to take his kids to daycare, my brother, unexpectedly passed away while getting out of the shower. His precious wife had to attempt life saving measures in front of their one year old daughter and four year old son. Brinkley was a devoted husband and father who loved his wife and kids dearly. Being young, self employed, and thinking he had all the time in the world, he didn't have life insurance. We have received an amazing outpouring of love with many people asking how they can help. Kelsey and the kids are at the start of a new path in life, and the best way we( the Castle and Wilson families) know how to help is to contribute financially to the future of Kelsey and the kids.

Writing is not my strong suit so I'm going to share Kelsey's words....

"Life is so unfair....Picking out your clothes today was unbearable. I don’t want to do this. I’m trying so hard to stay strong for the kids and haven’t cried in front of them yet. Explaining to Boone that you’re in heaven was the hardest conversation I have ever had. He saw you fall. He saw me try to save you. He saw the ambulance take you away. He saw the fire trucks and said they took you as a team. He thinks you’ll be back once you feel better. He is so smart and asking me so many questions that I don’t have answers to. He said that Jesus doesn’t have a bed for you. He asked if you’ll be back once he’s taller. He asked if you took a rocket ship to the sky. He said he misses you. He asks the most questions at bedtime and wants me to hold him until he falls asleep. I pray that I can get the memory of that moment out of my head. I replay it over and over wondering if I could have done something different, if EMS could have gotten there quicker. Everyone has told me they’re glad I was there with you but I’m not. I never wanted to witness that for me or the kids and I know you wouldn’t have wanted that for us either. I hate this right now and cannot find the reason for it.

Typing it out makes me feel better because I haven’t had a chance to show emotions in front of Boone and Grace.

I love you Brinkley, forever & ever."
