“Family members believe David’s death was needless,” she wrote. “They blame his death and the deaths of all other innocent people on Trump, (Texas Gov. Greg) Abbott and all of the other politicians who did not take this pandemic seriously and were more concerned with their popularity and votes than lives.”
Also to blame for her husband’s death, Nagy wrote, are the “ignorant, self centered and selfish people who refused to follow the advice of the medical professionals, believing their ‘right’ not to wear a mask was more important than killing innocent people.”
“Dave did everything he was supposed to do, but you did not,” Nagy wrote. “Shame on all of you, and may karma find you all!”
Nagy told CNN’s Erin Burnett she was distraught and angry when she wrote her husband’s obituary. She wanted to compel her neighbors to wear masks and “put blame where blame belongs.”
“It’s frustrating when you know that somebody’s died that didn’t need to die, or at least they didn’t need to die in the way they did and the time that they did,” Nagy said in her Tuesday appearance on “Erin Burnett Out Front.”
David, originally from California, retired to Texas and had lived in Jefferson for several years before his death, Nagy said. He was beloved by his family and friends for his playful needling.
“Dave was a character,” Nagy said. “He was a fun-loving person and he loved his family dearly.”
Nagy said she’s lost the love of her life. He was a part of her, she said, — a part she believes she lost too early.
