Milo caught a nasty upper respiratory virus, he head felt like it was made of concrete and he was starting to develop a cough.
Gene put him to bed, he worried every time Milo got sick.
Jen made dinner for them all. She wanted Milo to rest and knew he'd try to get in the kitchen to cook. Josh and Gene kept her company while she prepped the food.
Gene went up to bring him dinner and found that he had passed quietly in his sleep. Gene sat with him until the coroner came to pick him up.
They determined he had passed from heart failure exacerbated by a developing case of pneumonia.
They opted for cremation and set Milo up in his Studio with views of the bay.
Milo's passing hit everyone hard but unexpectedly, Josh was distraught. He didn't want to talk about it but Jen had her guesses. Milo and Gene had accepted him into the fold, to them Josh was just one of the kids.
Josh had been the one that helped Gene set up his urn in the studio.
Jen was Josh and Gene's rock through their grief. She made sure they ate, slept and took care of their basic needs.
Gene and Milo had been together for so long Gene had no idea how to move forward without him.
