I am so terribly sorry that Pierson has passed away. Thank God that he was not in a lot of pain. That should give you a bit of comfort. He has been in my prayers Sherry. As have you. I am sending you a big big hug. Take good care of yourself my friend.

Love - kim

If I remember correctly, Bill said earlier how he and your brother shared a love of fishing. He said he would "catch and release" fish and think of Pierson. That just sounds right.
