"It (the report) makes it harder," Beth Fliehr said. "I knew his fears and I knew how to help him. All he wanted to do was stay busy, train and keep his mind off the old triggers, then go back to Japan. He was doing really well there. He was happy."

I hope people remember his laugh, his spirit and his love of life."
