Re: My Dad passed away this morning
Rick, Sorry and My Condolenses seem so shallow, superficial, and, well, lame, at this time. But they do come from the bottom of our hearts. If we were closer we could give you a shoulder to lean on, but we can only reach out in the best way we know how.
You are in our thoughts and prayers, and if there is anything we can do to help ease the pain of losing a parent, say the word. In the past I have lost a great MIL, FIL, and Dad. You will never stop missing them, but you will always have the memories. Cherish the good memories and forget the bad. My dad passed away 10 1/2 years ago and there are still times I expect to see him come barrelling through the door laughing like a fool because of some trick or joke he played on someone.
One thing we can do, and I have done already and will continue to do, is to pray that God will grant you the peace and strength to get through this difficult time. May God's grace be with you, Rick.
