It is a devastating state of nature to lose him, his first choice research skills and most importantly his voice. <br /><br />It is very sad, and it came as a huge shock to see what he was suffering from. I have no words of comfort, as I am trying to swallow this incredible sad fact myself. God/Destiny/ or for that matter the randomness of life took him away from us but that too early and for that matter too unjustly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3722233.post-11758112128114125802012-06-08T05:10:19.890-05:002012-06-08T05:10:19.890-05:00This is a shocker! how did I not know that he had ...This is a shocker! how did I not know that he had cancer.
