I read the story about Bruce Blow... I never knew Bruce to have a father named Chuck Blow. I wonder who identified the body? Leea is my daughter... seems she does not remember ever hearing the name Chuck Blow either. Could be a different Bruce Blow.

He didn't have a father named Chuck. The man who identified himself as Bruce Blows, father, was his friend Jackie Casey, who a few weeks later ended up killing my brother, Terry Brumley who was jumping with Bruce Blow, the day he died. I am truely sorry for your loss.

This is a tragedy. It would be my nightmare to have it happen to one of my own children.

My wonder is this; why was it so? Was the person unresponsive to the family? Did the family know?

It's like a line from a Nicklecreek song:
" My greatest fear would be, that you would crash and burn; and I won't feel your fire."

(from "When You Come Back Down")

Sorry for your loss.

No, he was in communication with me. My brother had only been homeless for a very short amount of time. He actually called me the Friday, before he was killed and asked me to come get him. I was too late. Terry, wanted help. But I guess God, had a different plan for him.

Barbara,
I am a little confused. Are you saying that they think someone may have pushed Bruce off the bridge? I was not aware of this. I actually have the news clip where they interviewed my brother at the site where Bruce, had jumped off. Nothing in the report indicated foul play. I am interested on hearing more. Could you please email me @ m.ott@masscomail.com to fill me in, please. I am curious if they think it is Jackie Casey (the man that killed my brother).
Thanks
Michelle

I think that Leea would know more than you about her family,she was with me too and Bruce was my brother.Check your facts first I did.This a very bad thing to happen to all of us who loved him,try not to right it off for Leea.

Jody I think If you were to re-read what I wrote I thought that something did not seem right. And yes Leea does know alot about her family all sides. I and Leea did not seem to recall a Chuck Blow so I was in hopes someone would re-investigate this. Leea has grown up to be a beautiful and LOVING young lady. With a great heart. I never meant to try and make you feel un-important in her life. But she is now and always will be my daughter as well. Keish

It couldn`t of happened to nicer people,I`m only sadden that it was bruce instead of others in the family,that diserves such.I`m also very glad that i`m not in ftw and haven`t been in 15 years ,because when this happened I was the first that you thought of to accuse,i`m sure.

A friend is likely to ring up with an exciting suggestion or you could receive a spur of the moment invitation that's too good to refuse. An interesting encounter is also on the cards, especially when you're brought together through unusual circumstances.
