Default RIP Dad

The last 6 months was a struggle for my Dad, we lost him early tonight. I did get to spend time with him today, he passed with no suffering.

I'm sorry for your loss Jay. None of us will escape death, but it's the ones left behind like yourself that morn the loss and feel the pain that the deceased does escape in their passing. Ruthann and I will pray for you, your Dad, and the family he leaves behind.

sorry to hear about your Dad but at least you did get some time with him. It's always tough to lose a parent especially if they are good parents. Life must go on

Really sorry to hear you lost your Pop
I will be there someday as well and know it will be very difficult.

I'm glad he is no longer suffering and no doubt in my mind, in a much better place than here.
