Thanks. He was a good guy. A crotchety old programmer who did things his way. He likely ended up with ALS as a result of his service in Vietnam, but I don't know if we'll ever be able to pinpoint that association soundly. Regardless, the VA took good care of him, I'll give them that. And in the end, he was able to decide when his time to go was and they took off the ventilator and he went peacefully. He had a good life and got to make the choice for himself in the end. That's more than a lot of people get.
