"That my uncle passed from AIDS and not cancer like he said. Turned out he had been sick for a really long time. Gutted he never felt like he could share with us and went through it alone."
"My great-grandfather had another family that wasn't revealed until after he passed in his late 90s. He lived 'til I was in my mid-20s, and not once would I have ever suspected it. He was present at every family party, took me for haircuts once a month... My great-grandmother knew but hid it from everyone in the family."
"When he died in 1987, my grandmother just left the door closed and locked... the room was like a time capsule, complete with Winston cigarettes still on the desk, butts in the ashtray, bills... But then I found a locked file cabinet drawer and got curious/suspicious."
