Riverboat Richie Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 I know what he is going through. My wife passed away unexpectedly two weeks ago after 29 years of marriage. I don't wish the emotional highs and low you go through on anyone. Bad things happen and we must carry on with the help of your faith, whatever that may be. You feel alone but you are anything but. Friends and family play a big part of getting through it. I know he has the support system to get through it and he and his family will be in my prayers. God be with them in their time of need.

To you and AFLGuy, there is no need to apologize, as I feel like we are all family. I'm so sorry for your losses, and truly can't imagine that experience after 33 years with my wife. She travels a lot for work, but I always "know" she's coming back. I try to take nothing for granted, and I try to make the most of every moment.

It's a journey we are going through. So true, life is a journey with no shortage of ups and downs. Going through some of that right now. One key is not to get too down at the low points, and to appreciate the hell out of the good times when it's all rolling your way. So happy to hear your are getting good support after such a tragic loss. I can't imagine.... Stay strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 The story continues..... http://www.courant.com/news/connecticut/hc-berman-fatal-bar-investigated-20170815-story.html The owner of a Woodbury restaurant identified Tuesday by the state as being under investigation in connection to the car crash in which Katherine Berman was killed says her establishment was closed on the day of the crash. Carole Peck told The Courant that the Good News Cafe was closed May 9, the day the wife of ESPN personality Chris Berman was killed along with a Waterbury man. She said late Tuesday she did not know why her establishment was originally under investigation and that the restaurant had been in contact with investigators. Liquor Control agents came to her restaurant about two weeks ago asking about Katherine Berman, she said. Peck said she told them her restaurant is closed on Tuesdays so Berman couldn't have been there and must have been at one of the other restaurants in the same area along Main Street.
