I miss him, but it was a blessing. It was his time. He was in pain, frustrated, angry, that he couldn't communicate, get around, do the things he wanted to do. He is whole again and with lots of friends.
He is taking care of you. He has met his match. My Father and Mother are with him as well.
I know these things.
