As I entered the garden, he was sitting there, so pale, yet so peaceful, that not a single tear fell from my eyes. I realised straight away what had happened, but felt that if I moved, he would really go. He had been unwell, and it wasn’t unexpected, but still a shock. He had seemed so well.

“Oh Felix!” I exclaimed at last, stroking his lovely white hair, and a sudden memory came to me.

‘Death is falling asleep to awaken with God’, that was what Madge had said. I went to find Jack, knowing Felix was safe at last.
