So he’s inviting anyone

Ok this tweet is breaking my heart so I guess it might as well break yours too.

This is Antonio Basco. His wife of 22 years, Margie, was murdered in El Paso. Mr. Basco says he has no other family so he’s inviting anyone, who wants to come, to attend his wife’s services in El Paso: Friday, August 16th Perches Funeral Home Northeast 4946 Hondo Pass 5-9pm

    Our country has gone to the dogs. For him to have lost his wife in this way, and have no one else…damn.

    Beto is going, and his campaign staff are, and it looks as if a lot of people are – far more than can fit inside. Many flowers being sent also.

    Bah I can’t talk about it for even a second without needing to mop eyes.

    Ya think Trump will show up? It would be a great opportunity for a thumbs up, and just the kind of thing that attention starved asshole would do.

    I’m relieved to hear his community is rallying around him. This hurts my heart. I can only imagine how painful it is for him.

    I’ve been married for 20 years and I can’t imagine what it would be like to lose Liz. It came close to happening a couple of years ago and we were forced to think about it quite seriously but I still don’t think I can imagine the loss.
