Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I will really miss my father, but I am grateful that we were blessed to have him for so long and that we were able to be with him when he passed. I am also grateful that we were able to see him and my mother celebrate over 50 years of marriage and that he was able to meet my children.
