Wow what an amazing story, I never knew your dad and uncle Charlie didn't get along, I wonder if it was because he was gay. I loved your uncle Charlie, I remember making out with him in Silverlake, there was the sunset junction fair, that was a lot of fun. You have a lot of great memories of your Uncle Charlie, glad he was always there for you!!The thought of being a direct witness to your sibling final moments would be a memory I would never forget . Thank you for sharing your stories

No, it had nothing to do with him being gay at all. My dad was the least homophobic guy I knew. I think it was their mom, honestly. They didn’t hate each other, they just got on each others nerves. And I think gramma played them against each other.
