Pauline, Christine, Joanne and Kat....I only wish I had had the pleasure of meeting your mom and dad before he became ill. I had heard so many wonderful things about him. We don't always know God's plan but you can be assured your Dad is not suffering. You have to keep the faith and be strong for each other. Life is too short. You must live each day to the fullest.
