Can't blame God or his/her weather makers. Bottom line is if it is a "sick/dying" tree notify your neighbor in writing, email or text to CYA. You CAN cut a tree anywhere it hangs over your property line without permission from the owner.
Or post on an online forum that tree is damaged and will fall
