    Wallis to CMB 3/06:.
    My brother, Jess, committed suicide Saturday morning.  He was very sick physically and I suppose he couldn't stand his life anymore.  He had diabetes and on his 80th birthday a year and a half ago he had a stroke.  He had a beautiful, devoted wife and he loved her very much. The entire family is very upset for her and, I
    suppose, angry with him in a way for doing this to her.
    
    Perhaps he didn't want to burden her anymore, but she did everything
    willingly and more for him.  We are all very upset naturally.  I feel very sad having started out as the youngest of six children and have one brother left.  The brother left was a twin to Jess.  Not identical at all, however.  It may be of interest to you to know that my brother Jess has The Distinguished Flying Cross from WW II and some other medals.  Too bad his bravery then wasn't there for him now.
