Rahul, my condolences to you and your family. I'm sure he was incredibly proud of you and your brother's accomplishments, and counted those as very happy days indeed. I know what you mean about your brother being with him, it is incredibly comforting to know that he wasn't alone. I hope that happy memories of your father wash away the painful memories of his difficult passage.
