I'll Grieve You With This

Comedian Calvin Cato told me about becoming an only child when his brother suddenly passed, the life and memory of his father and the ups and downs of their relationship, the amends they were able to make before he died, and gratitude for the people who leave us clear instructions for what they want as they approach their own mortality.
