Cindy and Anthony,
Please know that you have my prayers, my heart and my support. I love you both and I'm here if you need anything.
I hope it comforts to know that Sheldon no longer struggles for air; he breathes celestial air now. While Sheldon no longer struggles, we will grieve. There is a loss for us here - on earth, in our daily lives - that is huge. Husband. Brother. Uncle. Friend. Sheldon was all these things. He will be missed by all who knew him.
Personally, I'll miss Sheldon's smirky-smile on the daily! I can hear that quick belly laugh that would burst out of him when something tickled his funny bone! Memories like that of him will always make me smile.
With Love,
Marie
