pam Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 As I have known many on this website for some time now and have met many in person I wanted to share this. My dad passed away at 3 a.m. this morning. My family is all okay and are at peace with this. He was suffering so badly. It's a wonderful thing to know that he no longer feels the pain...no longer is suffering...no longer struggling to breathe. The amazing thing I keep thinking about is...how lucky he is today. He has now seen the Savior. How amazing that is. I can't even comprehend it. His patriarchal blessing said he would be caught up in the air by the Savior. Thanks to all of you that have already sent me messages of comfort prior to this. It means a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wingnut Posted March 26, 2009 Report Share Posted March 26, 2009 It's hard to know what to say, but I'll say something at least. I'm sorry for your loss, but you sound like you're at peace with it, and even happy for your father. I'm glad on both those counts. :bighug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
