My grandfather finally died, noonish east coast time on Wednesday. My parents said he went peacefully.
There's not to much to say that I didn't already; he was a wonderful man, but it was his time to go. Time to end his suffering and that of the people who loved him. If I've got the chance, I'll probably head back to Otsu, burn some incense on the beach for him or something.
I guess I'm a little numb. I've already done some of my grieving, but it wasn't real yet. Now it is. But I can't be too sad - I bet Grandpa's spirit is soaring just like the kites he always loved.
