So sorry to hear of your father's passing. There is little that I can say or do to ease your pain and suffering. May knowing that you are in the thoughts and prayers of may bring a measure of comfort. Please know that God cares for you and he will give you the strength that you need to endure this time of sorrow. (1 Peter 5:6,7)
