So sorry for your family's loss. There is comfort in knowing that now your Uncle Frank is free from suffering. I know you will find just the right words to honor him and comfort your Aunt, as difficult as that might be...

Best wishes... Catherine

My wife and I have an uncle. He started with the fight with bladder cancer about a year before I did, in fact, we had the same urologist at one point. I was going to say Uncle Frank lost the battle this morning but, that is not the meaningful truth: the meaningful truth is, the pain and suffering have ended and for this I am glad. The battle, well 'we all' are still marching towards the day when more and more can win the victory of being cancer free. As a retired priest, I have told our Aunt, I will do the graveside services. You know we priests have a great, wonderful, profession but one very lousy part is when you have to bury too many of your friends and family.

Age 72 had radical 9/11/10 have conduit everything is fine, grateful to be a cancer survivor. Lost Dad and Brother to Cancer both in their 50's.
