I never met you or Pete as others have done but send sympathy to you in your loss and long battle with dememtia.
To my deep regret due to health problems I was unable to be with my husband when he died. Or daughter saw him shortly afterwards and said he no longer had the dementia face, looked just like his normal self. It is a strange thing and glad you saw him as his own self, it must have been so comforting. Surely sign that at last he was at peace. I hope it comforts you and helps over the next stage and beyond.
Wishing you strength and that you too find peace in the days to come.
Love
