Talinda and the family appreciate it, and want the world to know that you were the best husband, son, and father; the family will never be whole without you.” “Your absence leaves a void that can never be filled — a boisterous, funny, ambitious, creative, kind, generous voice in the room is missing, ” they said in the letter. ” We’ re trying to remind ourselves that the demons who took you away from us were always part of the deal. After all, it was the way you sang about those demons that made everyone fall in love with you in the first place.”
