Raymond and Donesia upon hearing of your dad's passing, my first thought was his long battles with his health are finally over. Then it dawned on me, while this is the end of his suffering, it's blessedly the beginning of dad's new eternal presence with our Lord and Savior. For to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. God Bless you.
