As the morning ended and the afternoon advanced, one of the greatest men I have ever known gasped for his last breaths.
All of his children surrounded him, their spouses too. Close friends nearby. His wife cradled next to him in bed, holding his hand. He tried with everything that was in him to tell her a final time that he loved her. She whispered in his ear, "I love you."
Within moments, he breathed his last breath and we watched as the life of this world left his earthly dwelling.
This beautiful picture of love will forever play over and over again in my mind.
