March 5, 7:50

Dad passed away this evening at 7:40. We are a strange cocktail of angry, thankful and wracked with grief. Thank you for the prayers for our family. While what we feel right now is a pain greater than we could have imagined, knowing someone like my Dad makes this and every other trial we will ever face easier and more hopeful.

I can't even imagine how many footprints your Dad has left in
this world for all of us to
remember. Your Dad was and is one
of the finest men I have ever known. He will truly be missed.

(God Bless you and your Family)

Val,

I haven't talked to you (or read) any blogs of late, but Gina informed me this morning of your loss. I am so sorry. Know that I will be praying for you and your family now and in the days to come.

Just think...he is no longer in pain and suffering...which does not help your grief now but might give comfort in the days to come. His pain has ended and yours has begun as you miss him daily.

That will be my prayer....that God comfort you as only He can provide and in ways none of us can.
