Condolences.


I know I want to die like my grandfather, peacefully in his sleep.

Not screaming like everyone else in the car.

The ancient Egyptians, who knew a thing or two about dead people, wrote:

"To speak the name of the dead is to make him live again."

I hope you will speak often to your family about the good things he accomplished in his life. It sounds like you would have a lot to talk about.
