...passed away peacefully in his sleep early this morning.

It was, I suppose, not all that big of a surprise given the state of his health over the last few months. At the same time, it was unexpected in a way...hopefully you know what I am saying.

Dad was 79 years old. Given his life history, you might say that we got way, way more time with him than might have been. And yes, he did live a full life. Still gonna miss him, though.

Mom is doing very well, thanks; I think she was probably as prepared as a person could be. And the kids seem to be doing okay for the most part as well.

Sorry if this is a bit brief...lots to do right now, and not only with things pertaining to Dad. I'll poke in as I can over the next few days - hopefully fairly often (you folks make for a wonderful support group) but if I am a bit more scarce than usual I am sure you will understand.

Thanks...

I'm so sorry, AD.

All my good thoughts to you and especially your mom.

I'll think of you often in the difficult days ahead.

You and your family will be in my thoughts.

My condolences, AD.

I am so sorry for your loss.

So sorry AD.

Condolences and thoughts with you and your family.
Be well.

I'm sorry to hear this, Mike. No matter how much you prepare there is a finality that just takes one back a step. Good wishes coming your way.

So sorry Mike. I am glad to hear it was a peaceful passing.

Just as you said, we are here for you. Stop in as needed.

Hugs,

Donna

I'm so sorry. Hugs. My heart is with you.

My condolences to you and the entire family. Take care of yourself and whatever needs to be done. We'll be here if you need us.

I am so sorry to hear about your Dad.

My heartfelt condolences, AD. Prepared or not, it is still tough to lose a parent. We weren't prepared for Dad, we were for Mom. It still hurts either way. Peace to you and yours.

You are certainly in my prayers.

I don't think we can ever be "prepared" for the death of a loved one. The death of a father hits especially hard for a son, I think. Make sure you have plenty of good support.

Oh,AD. I'm so sorry. Everybody's said what I would say. Just know that you have lotsa friends and family sending prayers for peace and comfort your way and to your family.

Oh, Hugs to you and yours.

Sending warm thoughts to all.

AD-I'm so sorry. Your dad was very lucky to have you as a son.

I am praying that you and your family will comforted during this rough time.

You have my condolences, AD.

Adding my condolences, AD. It can't be easy, yet it sounds like your family is doing as well as can be expected.

Keep on doing what you do.

Mike

So, so sorry, AlphaD. I lost my daddy a few years ago. It's tough.

Sending my sympathies to you and your family.
