    POOOOOOO

    I have to say it was an honor to meet you & RD when we were in Seattle a few years back. I'll never forget the Canadian jokes RD told

    Oh Mimi, we should all be so lucky to exit this world, surrounded by loved ones, with our favorite music playing us out. I am truly sorry, my condolences to you and your family. Blessings.

    Mimi - wishing you peace during this difficult time. Don was a special soul who touched a lot of people in positive ways. He leaves an amazing legacy and a wealth of good memories.

    I am kind of in awe of your writing about Don's last hours. Not only is it beautiful, but it shows us all the right way to die. I know that sounds weird, but so often, death is so medicalized.
    Again, I am thinking of you. I hope you don't mind a Jewish prayer in Don's name.

    Oh Mimi, you are so strong and the way you wrote about his final hours was just beautiful. That is the proper way to pass, surrounded by loved ones and also shows your love and that of your family. I hope you don't mind a Greek Orthodox prayer for him, and for you and your family.

    I sit, writing this, with tears falling onto my keyboard. Mimi - you are a beautiful, strong, compassionate woman and today my heart breaks for you. Like others, while I never met you or Don, I feel as if I know you both. Keep Don close in your memories - revel in the happy, good times that you shared and know that he loved you.

    My sincere condolences to you, your sons, and your entire family at this difficult time. As someone else said already, we here at TE care about you deeply - continue to rely on us as necessary in the coming days and weeks.

    With much love and hugs,
