May his Spirit be embraced in G~ds light, free of the effects of this cursed sickness. My heart aches for the pain you all must feel, we who live on. Blessed are you for taking care of him. I I know not what awaits us after this brief life, but my hope is that the love we share while here will re-unite us once again. I wish you peace and comfort in this terrible moment.
