Since I shared a few days ago that I have not been active here as I dealt with the imminent death of my brother, I thought I'd share now – at the risk of too much sharing – that my brother died this morning.

The light inside you that warms your heart is the same light that resided in your brother, and still does, forever. Your shared love still shines between you. May his memory be a blessing, my friend. May he RIP

@wdlindsy Well done, William. Thank you for writing and then sharing this tribute to your brother, Philip. Thank you for letting us in on a bit of his life, and of your own. (I'm of an age where things like this hit a lot closer to home than they used to.)
