Knew or know
I wanted to tell some people, who have not been in contact with my step-dad since my mother's death, that he is in the hospital.
I wrote
To those of you who knew Cecil he is in the hospital. And then gave the address
My aunt writes back that I should have said "to those of you who know Cecil" because what I said meant he was dead.
I feel if you have not talked to him in over 10 years you don't know him anymore.
Who is right?
