nycartist,
Closure is a tricky thing. I just read a Psychology Today article on Ghosting which is related to not having closure. In your case, you are best to do the closure with yourself, i.e. write your uncle a letter about all the pain, sadness, disappointments and anger that you have with him. Then burn it. It would do no good to actually have him read it. The very process of doing this will help you.
