Damojo, I feel your pain bro. It's good to see someone who knows the true meaning and value of life such as yourself. The part about your story where you gave him the wood and a nail, tells him that you use your head and that he means a lot to you.
My uncle died of cancer in 05 and just before he found out he had it we started to get close again. I graduated Boot Camp and at that time due to me not being able to go home, my dad brought the camcorder and I recorded a little hello and sent some love to him (knowing that it would be my last). About 3 weeks later he passed. I think about him a lot, especially when I'm fishing. We fished together a lot. I am glad of the memories I have with him and I will not forget him.
