In fact, maybe at the moment of his death he would be too weak to feel pain. Death would be a relief.

For his parents, the pain would never end."

It is for the survivor to mourn, bury the dead, and leave the rest to the earth. That is the way of it – the way of death - and the misery it leaves behind."

We agreed that a good moral background and thorough grounding in the Hardy Boys would always tell in the long run.("Arch-Criminal")"
