"At the moment of death, there is a passing of energy. An explosion of consciousness. It permeates everything in close proximity: your clothes, jewelry, .. anything. We can still feel him, .. what he was, .. what he did, .. his hopes, .. and fears, .. and expectations. It's still there for a few minutes. .. Then it will disappear. .. Joining him in silence."
