My Father died tonight at the nursing home in his sleep. |
|
It was peaceful passing, my Aunt was there.
I will miss him so.
He was a good man, and did the best he could for his family.
Good bye Daddy, I am glad I got to know you.
Be a peace now, no more pain.

1. MiddleFingerMomMom passed in much the same way... |
|
. . . . ...81 years old, ready, peacefully in her sleep. . . . As deaths go... one couldn't ask for much better. . . . I hope YOU have found/will find peace. . . . It was his time... and he lives on in you and your love. . . .

My Dad died that way too in August, he went to sleep and just didn't wake up, and then he died. He was even slightly smiling.

37. Thank all of you so much for the kind responces to my post. |
|
I will be taking care of his final arrangments for the next few days.
I thought I was prepared for this call but I don't think you can really be ready.
I was hoping for another holiday season with my Father, a least Thanksgiving.
My Father and I were not always close but we did get together for the last few years.
My father was a WWII vet, another one gone.
I will have another flag now.

61. He lived a great life. Because you will miss him. That's all we all want. |
|
Mom went in 2003, same way, in a nursing home.
She was of the Greatest Generation, and Eleanor Roosevelt flew to Detroit to give her the first War Production Board award to a woman.
What mattered to her at the end was her sons. We loved her, and you obviously loved your Dad.
Condolences. He was a fortunate man to have you.
