No long struggle with illness or anything. He was just ... old, passed away in his sleep. He always loved his children and I learned my love of calligraphy from him as he was quite good at calligraphy. Life is definitely strange right now. We were at a Tai Chi bootcamp/retreat when we heard the news. It's always the thing you fear - a phone call at 6AM. Lots of stuff to catch up and prepare. Fortunately, I have many brothers and sisters in NY and they will be taking care of the things that need to be taken care of. Due to the July 4th holiday, the funeral isn't until next Wed/Thurs. We will be flying to NY on Tuesday and returning on Friday. *** Morwyn will be starting radiation treatment tomorrow. This will not cure her, but just prolonging her life, hopefully long enough for us to process our feeling of losing her. *** http://www.dragonsgate.net/pub/richard/LJPics/123105/crop0029.jpg -- // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com/> // icc blog: <http://imagecraft.wordpress.com> // photo blog: <http://www.5pmlight.com> [ For technical support on ImageCraft products, please include all previous replies in your msgs. ]
