As a lot of you know , my dad has battled a lot of medical problems the last couple of years . From being run over by his own truck to cancer to various other med problems .
At 5 :40 am this morning my dad shed this earthly shell of a body and life and went to be with the lord. He had a terrible nite as I spent the last 24 hours of his life holding his hand. He was at peace with some other things going on in his life and that was a comfort .
No more pain and suffering . No more cancer . He can root for the Orioles from up above ( lord knows they need it ! ). Dad , I miss you so much already and you havn't been gone a day yet !
Requesting as many prayers as my brothers and sisters can give me and my family !!!

I'm so sorry to hear this brother! It's always a comfort knowing that who you love is no longer in pain but still it hurts. I'm sending prayers for him, you and all the family and friends impacted by his passing! Please don't hesitate to let me know if you need anything. From someone to talk to to needing something just let me know

My Sympathies, I hope this poem in someway helps ease the pain. Take Care
I give you this one thought to keep -
I am with you still - I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning's hush
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone -
I am with you still - in each new dawn.

I'm sorry for your loss gene. I know it's hard but try to take heart that he is no longer suffering And to pass while your family is next to you, if giving a choice , I'm sure is the way most people would like to go. Prayers coming your way buddy.

Worst way to die is alone, IMO - your dad went out surrounded by his loved ones, knowing they cared for him. I'm sorry for your loss, but know that he went out knowing you loved him.
