  A "RECOVERED" GAMBLER 
I just received word that my brother has died, or that his spirit has now left him; as I mentioned in Group this week, he had a massive heart attack Monday morning that left him brain dead.
This is the brother I wrote about that give me such a hard time when I told him about my compulsive gambling problem – the one who showed me tuff love.  The brother that I later learned had, and overcame a gambling problem, 50 years ago becoming a Recovering Gambler living a gambling free life.
 
But most important, he was a brother who taught me so many things and gave me so much of his life, things that I could never repay. A brother who I loved dearly.
This may seem like a strange place for a eulogy for him, but this site is part of my life and the tribute to his being gambling free after combating this disease on his own (before GA or GT) is the one I need to share here. My other tributes will relate to his world.
He is no longer a RCG, he left a "Recovered" person and a Child of God.
God bless his family.
 Larry"Day Two Is Now, Another Day Behind" – With the help of a Higher Power, My 3G’s – God, GA, and GT, I will not have to relive a Day 2.
