The 44-year-old collapsed lifeless in the kitchen. The widow and the three half-orphans have psychological consequences. A charity run on Friday from 6 p.m. in Ansfelden in Upper Austria should at least absorb some financial worries.
The tragic death of 44-year-old Alexander F. from Marchtrenk was more than a month ago. For the bereaved, however, his loss remains daily pain. “We try to deal with it, but it doesn’t make the pain any less,” said widow Sibylle F.
Shock not over yet
The mother of three and her minor children Sophie (11), Leonie and Tobias (9) each have yet to be cared for by the staff of the crisis intervention team. Apparently they haven’t been able to get over the shock that father and husband Alexander suddenly dropped dead in the kitchen on June 14, as reported. “During the day, everyday distractions help a little, but at night it’s almost unbearable,” says Sibylle F.
The reality is still hard to bear at the moment. “You are also constantly looking for a meaning to continue living. The mental emptiness is just huge.” Since Alexander’s sudden death, all three children have slept in her bedroom. Unfortunately, the psychological effects are not the only problem for the four. There are also great financial concerns about a loan that has to be paid off as a result of building a house.
Running for a good cause
At the sports park Obermayr in Ansfelden, a benefit run for the relatives will start on Friday at 6 p.m. “Everyone can participate, because speed is not our concern,” says organizer Manuel Müller (54). In the Traun-Au, people run either four or more than nine kilometers. Parking and showers are available.
100 percent of the income – voluntary donations – goes to the family. “We hope for at least 80 to 100 participants,” emphasizes Müller. The “OÖ Krone” has also created a donation account under the password “Alexander” IBAN: AT28 5400 0000 0060 0007; BIC: OBLAAT2L
