Quote from Lorelai in To Live and Let Diorama
Lorelai: [on the phone] The man is gone. Rory: I don't believe it. I mean, are you sure? Lorelai: There's no breath left in him. The light's gone out of his eyes. He smelled the burnt almonds. He's feeding the worms. He's chatting up his grandpa. He is the old man formerly known as Twickham. Rory: Wow. I can't believe he's gone. I mean, he's been dying my whole life. Lorelai: And I just got my good-bye in. He was about to close shop for the day we got in, told him good-bye and that we'd miss him, we left and then apparently he just closed his eyes. Muttered something about Lori Loughlin and that was that.
