Burt Falkofske at Peace - Aug 16, 2008
Burt passed away this morning at the Reston Hospital from cardiac arrest. He had been re-hospitalized earlier this week with respiratory distress. The doctor had seen him earlier in the morning and said he had gotten a big smile from Burt. At that time he saw nothing imminent. Burt arrested at 11:15.
His struggle on earth is over and that is a blessing. A nurse at the hospital, who had been at Cameron Glen, said it very well. "This is what he has wanted for a long time, he is in a better place now."
Thank you all for your love, prayers and support over the past eleven long months.
Love, Carla
