My maternal grandfather at my parents’ wedding in 1956. He would die 2 years later at 45, 3 weeks before my birth, liver failure from drinking Vodka every day for 25 years.

I was born 24 hours after the death of my Aunt… it was a confusing time for the family. I believe she passed in the same hospital and my mother was in labor pains…

I had a coworker years ago, a Ukrainian, he had fought in WW2 and his son, who also worked with me, said that the first thing his Dad did in the morning was light a cigarette and down 2 shots of vodka.

Ive had many relatives pass from alcoholism at a young age as well. It’s so tragic. I’m sorry you never got to meet him.
