A Walk To Remember, One Mother’s Legacy
A voice whispered in my ear, “It’s time for you to walk in memory of your son.”. Thus began the planning for a 2000+ mile walk/bike combination trip as a memorial to Iris & Jim Angle’s son’s life, and to the lives of all our loved ones who chose to die too soon. Iris’s journey began on August 31, 2002 from the Chardon Cemetery, Chardon, Ohio. Eric was born, lived and is now buried in Chardon. Iris’s final destination was Phoenix. Arizona, on November 21, 2003–Eric’s birthday and where he died. The website was continually updated with the progress of the journey.

Sibling Suicide Survivors
Sibling survivors are often called the forgotten mourners. When a sibling dies, those siblings left behind, no matter their ages, are considered secondary mourners to the parents and/or if the sibling who died had a spouse and children. For those siblings still living at home, they will “lose” their parents for some time as the parents grieve the death of the deceased child. Parents can become so engrossed in their grief that they forget their living children still need reassurance they are loved and wanted. Because of the suicide, the surviving siblings’ roles in the family are altered. They might feel the need to parent their parents or protect them from anything else bad happening. The opposite could also happen where the parents try to shield the living children, afraid of losing them, too.
