I'm so glad he was blessed with a peaceful exit, and an exit in line with his nature.

CLEARLY, your MIG, and his family, are the best. What a beautiful way to go, surrounded with love and favorite music and family and everyone just... being. Lovely, really. While my heart breaks for your MIG and his loss, I'm so glad for him that it was peaceful. I wish I could hug you both. You both, and MIG's family, have all the love in my heart. I'm so glad you were able to be there, be helpful, be yourself. Wishing you strength, peace, love!Lorenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12156097768835940764noreply@blogger.com
