The bank initiated foreclosure proceedings because the stepfather - who was just the boyfriend at the time - stopped working right before he moved into the home. When they met, he lived in another city about two hours away, and this was long before people worked remotely. She received the home, and he quit his job to move in with her.

When the house was signed over to my FIL, they moved back to city where the stepfather was from and stayed there for almost 15 years. This was all before I met my husband. They moved back to our city right after we met.

The kick in the gut is definitely something that is happening. My oldest plays French horn in several high school bands, including the marching band. My FIL was a French horn player and drum major for his HS marching band. FIL came to almost every event last year, and my oldest actually played a solo at one of the funerals. Getting ready for this school year has been really hard. My oldest broke down at a rehersal recently.
