I was saddened to hear about your passing, Uncle . And wanted to share my concolences. There is obviously no good time or way for someone whom you care about to pass away. However,from what I have heard, it sounds as though he went peacefully. May you take comfort in knowing there is one more Angel above us. Acts, you where always one of my favorites. I will miss you.
