Dad, we all love you and are going to miss you very much. We are grateful that you are no longer suffering. Please don't worry about Mom. She has lots of family and friends that will help take care of her. I can see you entering Heaven, and being welcomed by all your family and friends that have gone before you- like Grandpa & Grandma, Aunt Fran and Aunt Kathy, Bill and Carl, and so on.
