I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Hold on to those precious memories and remember that he has gone from labor to reward in Heaven.

Awww, sweetie, I'm so sorry. Losing someone you love is always hard. I have never lost a parent, but I imagine it must be very hard.

I won't say, "I know how you feel", because well, I don't. I've lost other relatives...but never a parent, and I hate when people tell me, "I know how you feel".

I WILL tell you though, that I know what it's like to lose someone close to you. And I will tell you that I'm here if you would like to talk about it. I will pray for you.

God bless you, sweetie, and remember that we're all here for you. *hugs*

Thoughts and prayers. I've been there in terms of losing a parent. My Dad passed away just over seven years ago.

I am SO sorry to hear about your loss sweetie. I know this isn't going to be an easy time for you or your family. At least you have each other to lean on and the Lord to hear your prayers and comfort you.

I wish your family comfort and strength during this difficult time.
I will be praying and thinking of you!

There is little that I can say to you at a time like this... I am so so sorry for your loss. And the story of your fathers last moments with your mother is so beautiful and brought tears to my eyes. You and your family are absolutely in my thoughts and prayers.

My grand dad who raised me and my mom moreless died this month a yr ago and i read that and recall how we were in the room too and said similar things.... He loved you and his family and you are very blessed to have those last few words with him...... Bless your heart you are in my prayers

Why?
by John Etter

Why does the sun rise and give light,
Only to set again too soon?

Why do stars twinkle so bright,
Only to pass away with the moon?

Why does a rainbow appear with colors to show,
Only to fade for no apparent reason?

Why does a flower take so long to grow,
Only to wilt during winter season?

Why does snow fall so mysteriously and lay,
Only to change and then melt?

Why do people enter our lives along the way,
Only to leave us when they knew how we felt?

I guess no one will really know why, but God above.
But we should be happy for all those creations
We had some time to know and to love.


Christia, after I read about your father's passing, I couldn't help but say a little prayer for my dad too. They're both in the same place now, so I asked my dad to keep a lookout for him.

Love and prayers to you and your family.

Christia, I'm so sorry for your loss.

I understand what a terrible thing it is to lose a parent at a young age. My father died when I was 14, very suddenly.

I can't say I know exactly how you feel because everyone feels things differently. I just know its not easy.

Your story is beautiful and moved me to tears; I'm so glad you got a goodbye. Death is never easy, but having an official goodbye can ease things some, I'm sure.

*HUG*
