My husband was a man of immeasurable courage.
He fought his battle like the true gladiator he was.
His refusal to succumb to this insidious disease was an inspiration to
all of us.
He didn’t want to go anywhere.
He didn’t want to leave us-- but his body betrayed him and it was
time.
I finally whispered in his ear that he could let go……he could come into
my heart…..where it is safe, warm and he would not hurt anymore.
It was time to go home…..with this, he took his last breath, and lives in
my heart forever.
My beloved husband passed away in my arms on Tuesday, April
16th at 1:15 AM.
Ryan and Emily held his hands.
He was surrounded by the love and support of our family and friends.
All who knew him were touched and inspired by his unbelievable
intelligence, wit and uncanny sense of style.
I take comfort in the knowledge that nothing was left unsaid between
us.
We expressed our adoration for each other every single day.
I thank my family and friends for supporting me and our children during
this difficult time.
We are all shattered by this loss… I do not know how we will go on
without him, but we will… I know that is what –He-- would have
wanted.
