He will, and what is lost can be found again in another time and place.

When I lose someone, I've developed a pattern of resolving to adopt the trait of theirs I most admired, or adopt one way they lived that trait.

I figure by trying to use them as an example for my own character growth, I'm honoring them by picking up at least one part of the torch they were bearing and bear that one part of the torch as part of my own torch.

Best wishes. Sending good vibes.
