MrsT85 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 One of my (our) favorite comedians Patton Oswalt was sadly and suddenly widowed last month. One of the very last live shows Tim and I saw together (and there weren't many those last handful of months, he was so busy with student teaching) was a Oswalt stand-up show at the Vic here in Chicago. He's held a special place in my heart for years - mostly for just being a brilliant and biting comedian, but also because his comedy was another thing Tim and I fell in love with together. He wrote a beautiful obituary for his wife Michelle McNamara. She was just 46 when she passed away in her sleep: http://time.com/4316653/patton-oswalt-remembers-michelle-mcnamara/ I winced when I read this. I remember feeling like this. Like I didn't even know who I was anymore without him... "I loved her. This is the first time I’ve been able to use “I” writing this. Probably because there hasn’t been much of an “I” since the morning of April 21. There probably won’t be for a while." I feel so horrible for him and his young daughter. What a terrible tragic loss :'( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
