My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. He has traveled many a mile over his life but has made it home peacefully with loved ones. As his spirit lives on, his earthly body can now rest. There is no doubt Mom Mom is telling him slow down and stop being so rambunctious in his new body. Fond memories of a lifetime shared.
