How shall I not weep when I think of death? For I have seen my brother in his coffin, without glory or comeliness. What, then, do I expect? And what do I hope for? Only grant me, O Lord, repentance before the end.

The link didn't work for me, sadly. Is there a text available?

I was going to PM you the copy-and-pasted text, but it won't let you paste it (it comes out all funky). I will PM Father and let him know about this thread, and perhaps he has a text copy on his computer.

So sad.
I too have had a close relative take his life years ago. The wounds it leaves do heal in time, but there is always a deep scar.
I can not imagine losing a son.
