This is beautiful phrasing, very much how I think about life myself. Let's hope the last days of Mr Wirth were free from physical pain. Thinking of my grandpa who died all of a sudden, apparently without serious physical impairments or aches, at age 90, after a happy, well-lived, ethical life.

Heaven is happier by one person now for sure, again. And maybe some compilers over there also need tinkering. Rest in peace, Mr Wirth.
