Related: About this forummy cousin died today, non covid19
he'd been in decline the past year and went into hospice this past weekend,
at the end was on hourly morphine dose so i know he was not in pain at the end.
we were the same age, same middle sons of 2 brothers, our dads..
my uncle, his father has passed, my dad (96yo) still alive...
i spent childhood playing with him and all brothers most summers, the usual
growing apart through teenage and adult years.. and miles
i remember him as affectionate, easy going, into nature, and not a malicious bone in his body... by his own admission having made some bad choices in his life that led to his early end i suppose ..
this seemed the only place i should say RIP Cuz, i'm glad you are out of pain ...
we may have been politically 180, but you were a kind soul
see ya on the other side 🙏🏻

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
