Serenity now!

He fought colon cancer for 18 months, and lost his battle this morning. He was in so much pain the last two weeks that it's a relief to know it's over.

The real sad part is his only daughter is getting married in about 6 hours.


Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

My condolences to you and your brother's family, 4x5

It was much the same with my mother. When she finally left us: Sad as we were, we were, at the same time, happy she was finally rid of the pain and misery.
