Mary & kids:
I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I'm sure this is hitting you like a ton of bricks. All I can say to all of you is that, be thankful that God didn't make him suffer or go through anything else. His suffering is over and he is at peace, with his and your loved ones that have already made it to heaven.
Hang in there and hang on to each other, you need to be the other one's strengh.
Love, Marilou
