Thank you for this insight into your brother, and into you. Family love is often either complicated or taken for granted, and it is obvious that the two of your figured it out. I rejoice with your brother in reaching heaven, his ultimate goal.

So sorry, Carol. I have to admit that his death after joking made me smile, though, as if he was himself to the end.

I understand. We grieved and we also smiled as we remembered him.
