PB, I am so sorry to hear this.  My thoughts and prayers for you and your cousins family and friends.  He gave so much and I do believe he lives on within those his life has touched.  Grieve and then focus on the good times.  So very sorry.

His name was Donald but everyone called him "Butch", he coached the 11-12 year old baseball team I was on to 2 back to back championships, coached pee wee football, girls softball, high school baseball, and who knows what else he did. He was 63, and a life long smoker. I remember seeing him at the poker tables not very long ago, he was telling me nothing had changed in all of these years, that I still hated losing..LOL..and I lost quite a bit that night. He will be missed by many as he touched a lot of lives. I know I will miss him dearly. Please say a prayer for his family, they weren't ready for this. He went quickly after being diagnosed, about a week later.
