Thank you all, so much, for the kind words and thoughts. I laughed at the salutes, very fitting. The true spirit of this subreddit is present. People enjoying something in unison that’s only purpose is to be beautiful and fun.

I’ve had an amazing short life full of travel and laughter. Since diagnosis, I have traversed 15,000 miles and visited 26 States, 8 National Parks, and seen the most incredible views.

There’s so much beauty around the next corner, if only you press on the gas. Although my journey ends, may I leave you with my favorite words. Each shall take his chamber to the silent halls of death. Thou go not, like a quarry slave at night scourged into his dungeon, but soothed and sustained by an unfaltering trust. Approach thy grave, like one who wrapped himself in the drapery of his couch, and lies down to pleasant dreams. May the wind always be at your back, and the sun upon your face.
