He was diagnosed with pancreas cancer 3mo. ago and died in his sleep early Sunday morning while holding his wife's and daughter's hands. Just glad he's finally free of the pain he was in and is now with his son up there. We will all miss him and his quirky sense of humor. Love you and rest in peace, dad.

im so sorry for your loss blackbriar! you definitely have a great and positive way of looking at things which is the best way to do it. i thought the same way when my grandfather passed away years ago. no more suffering and he was with his loved ones at the end, and that in itself is beautiful!
