Much of
David W. Nagy’s obituary, which ran in
his local paper in Jefferson, Tex., on July 30, recounted his painful death
from the novel coronavirus at age
79 and named his surviving family members. But midway down, the tone shifted to
offer a pointed message for President Trump and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R).
“Family
members believe David’s death was needless,” his wife, Stacey Nagy, wrote.
“They blame his death and the deaths of all the other innocent people, on
Trump, Abbott and all the politicians who did not take this pandemic seriously
and were more concerned with their popularity and votes than lives.”
Stacey
also scolded people who don’t wear masks, describing them in the obituary as
“ignorant, self centered and selfish people” who ignore medical professionals
and instead believe that “their ‘right’ not to wear a mask was more important
than killing innocent people."
