The Announcement of His Death (September 16, 2007)

Harriet’s post on the day he died was brief, solemn, and devastating. She confirmed his passing, expressed her love for him, and thanked the community for standing with them. The message was written with extraordinary restraint—grief expressed through clarity rather than emotion.

 

Harriet's devotion...

Whenever she spoke about him, even in the most clinical updates, there was a softness — a kind of reverence. She described his courage, his discipline, his humor, even as his body failed him. You could feel how fiercely she loved him, and how determined she was to protect his dignity.

She never let the illness define him. She always wrote about the man, not the disease.
