Missed his appointment

I just learned that a patient of mine passed away. This does not happen regularly to me. I’m a dental hygienist. Bruce did not show up for his appointment today. I was surprised. He usually is extremely punctual and always complained if I was not on time. Truthfully, this guy could be be a pain in the neck. Very demanding, sometimes rude, just difficult to deal with. But a character. I think he had a difficult life and was doing the best he could. I’ll miss him. He liked jazz. He had a show on the local radio station. I wish him infinite jazz.
