Remembering my Dad

Four years ago today, my Dad died at 5pm in the Ann Arbor VA Hospital from Lou Gehrig's disease.
I sat with him all day as he slipped away from coma to the great beyond.

I miss you Dad.

RIP

    So sorry.......Blessings . My mom passed a few years back at home on Xmas day 2pm. Hospice came in and help my sister and mom through her dieing and death. Before she died she was smiling telling us as we stood around her bed that the angles were there and her old friends that had died years before. I twas an experience I well never forget. She died days later. It took me days to really believe she was really gone. Guess I was in shock ? And forever to really believe she was not coming back. It was like she was on along vacation to me and would be home soon. I was very close to her, she was my best friend. I feel she is around every now and then still.....So I know how you must of felt, my heart goes out to you.Your Dad well always be in your heart. I miss and love my mom so much......much love to you....Casy

    Chuck,

    Dad's are irriplaceable.

    I miss mine also.

    2 years now, and I have to smile with thoughts of him,

    A slight tear burns to fall,

    He wipes this away with his twinkle I see from his eyes,

    The stars in the Heavens I know he watches for me.

    I'm really sorry about your dad Chuck. It sounds like you loved him alot. I'm glad that you were able to be there with him and he wasn't alone. I wish I could have been there with my mom but she passed away very quickly and quite suddenly. I was out of town and got that dreaded phonecall. We can just be thankful that they are no longer in pain and that they are in a better place. I'll light a candle for your dad.
