I don't usually feel the want or need to post 2 times in one day, but I had already scheduled today's post last night. So it is with a very heavy heart that I add this second post.
Dad was moved to Hospice Care at a local nursing home yesterday afternoon. With the severe storms predicted and the heavy winds that accompanied them here in the Midwest, we did not take the chance of going out to visit him.
Early this morning, Hospice called to say dad had died peacefully in his sleep. There is nothing more that I could have hoped for with the pain he has been experiencing for the last few months.
Soon I will write a post of memories good and bad as all those memories make up the man that dad was.
Until next time....blessings.

Oh I am so sorry. :( Prayers coming your way.
I'm so sorry Kim. My thoughts and prayers are most sincerely with you and your family at this difficult time.
I replied to your post over at my blog this morning but wanted to let you know here, again, that I am thinking about you. And that I am so sorry for your loss and at the same time so very grateful that your dad passed peacefully. Our God is merciful and is generous with His Grace. May your time of mourning be blessed as well with good memories. Blessings, Janet
Oh my gosh! Hugs to you! It is good that he is not suffering, but I know you are never ready to say good bye. I pray that you feel God's arms around you as you get through these next days. Keep blogging and e-mailing as you need to! We are all here for you!
I am so sorry. I didn't think it was going to be that soon. He is no longer suffering as you know but that doesn't make it hurt any less. Please let me know if I can do anything. Here is my phone number 740-587-1922. Those storms were scary yesterday. (((((HUGS))))
Will send up a prayer for you tonight. Very, very sorry for your loss.
Love, thoughts and prayers flood your way for you and your family at this time. Judith
