Death is an absence. Life, a presence. So let's enjoy the presence in forgetfulness of absence. That's how I take it.

Death is the ultimate finality.... each one of us may have different views on this and might accept it in our own way and time yet it's always looming....life is as much a reality to be lived as long as it lasts...

Did he ever change his mind?

I guess one has to live for the moment it is pretty grim for some at any age.

He may have had some depression going on.

Of course, as we age, death is something that becomes a focal point when you consider that we are not given the date that it will occur. I never gave death a thought until I hit fifty. Realization kick's in when you hit mid-life.

Perhaps dear FSI God helps us to prepare for death. I am older, most of the people I really loved apart from my sons and Grandchildren, have died now years ago. All my closest girlfriends died in our 60's. Sometimes I sit here alone and pray and death no longer frightens me. I've done so much and now feel tired.

Is he in his "90's"?
