It's devastating that he, and his family had to endure this disease.

The man cared so deeply about his family. He recently purchased a huge chunk of land that has a cane field. I used to be a sugar cane farmer. He and I made so many memories in such short period of time. My wife and I purchased a piece of property that is beautiful and right across from his home. He wanted his daughter, my wife, to live next to her mom to help her get through this. My wife is an RN and up to Tuesday, stayed at his house after she would get off of work to care for him. We were saying the rosary by his bedside when he left. It was so peaceful and everything that he deserved. I cut grass today on the property and cried like a baby the whole time. He talked non stop about our country and how we needed Trump back in office. Miss him so much already.

RIP to a good man. We don't have enough of them anymore.

I had that peaceful experience also when my dad died back in '93 when I was at his bedside. That's when I knew that there is a heaven. It made it a lot easier accepting his death. You guys are going to be just fine.
