I'm so sorry. Indeed, that must have been a terrible burden for him. My cousin is alive. He went into long-haul truck driving after he was fired, but when there was that amnesty thing, where they could go back on duty, he did that. He had learned to be an ATC when he was in the Air Force during Vietnam, so it was all he had ever done professionally until the strike.
My brother went in to training when he graduated college. Started at O'Hare. All he ever knew... he took went into long haul truck driving.... for Mayflower. I think a few of his fellow ATC did that. That was hard on his family... He never went back to ATC, I don't know why.
