Jules, I'm so very sorry. I'm holding you tightly in my heart.

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

Jules, I am so, so sorry about the loss of your dad. I read your post with tears streaming down my face. My mom has been gone over 3 years now and the pain is still fresh.

I also posted on this message board the day we lost her. It just seemed like the right thing to do.

I'm sending my deepest condolences to you.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

We have never posted but I read your message and so very sorry for your loss. Both of my parents are gone but not forgotten. I lost my mom on Easter Sunday many years ago it is a bitter sweet day for me.......take care, your dad is now at peace.

I'm so sorry for your loss, it's so hard to lose our parents. Just remember that even death cannot take your precious memories away.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences, Jules. And I hope you take some comfort in the knowledge that you were a good and loving daughter who took good care of him.

Jules, I am so sorry for your loss. It's so hard to lose your parents. In all your pain and grief you wish you had them there with you to comfort you and tell you..."It will be alright".... and then you realize that they are truly gone. Sending hugs and prayers your way.

Jules, so sorry for your loss.

I'm glad you are taking comfort in being with him as he died. I definitely think your presence - especially your telling him it was OK to leave - was a major factor in his peaceful transition.

I remember once my DH and I were visiting the hospital of parishioners and the wife asked us to pray with them - she was finally willing to let her husband go on. He was on a morphine drip yet had been very restless. As we all prayed, he calmed, squeezed her hand and left this world.

Your presence and acceptance meant more than you can know to your dad.

Despite the fact that he is now with the Lord - and your mom - I know your loss and grief and still very painful. I'm praying that God will comfort you and surround you with others who will as well.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Jules, I am so glad you posted to us. I don't for a minute wonder why you posted this today. It was a lovely tribute to your dad. I am so sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers today.
