My Dad passed away yesterday (Tuesday 7th) at 9.30pm. I wanted to let you all know as you have been so kind in praying for him throughout his recent illness. His passing was peaceful and he was surrounded by his family at the end and we talked to him, reassured him, hugged and kissed him as he left us.
I feel numb at the moment but I am so glad his suffering is at an end and that he is at peace at last.
Thank you all for all your thoughts and prayers.
Stella

Stella~ I'm so sorry for your loss. I know you'll miss your dad terribly, although there is such peace knowing he is no longer suffering. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers. Wish I was close enough for a regular hug, but this cyber hug is the best I can offer right now.... HUGS, Susan

Just as the catepillar goes into a cocoon- decays- and comes out a butterfly--- so the soul emerges in a brillant form in another sphere. May you always cerish your good memories. Tell us something good your father did. Relate his good deeds to others... that is (in addition to his decendents) his legacy. May you gain comfort.

Stella, I'm so sorry to hear about your father. I realize that knowing someone is dying doesn't make it any easier when they leave us, because we are never truly ready for them to go! I'm so glad for your family that you were able to say your goodbyes, and that his end was peaceful. Your family will be in my prayers. Hugs, Laura
