I know I am not alone in saying this is a hard loss for all of us. This came as a shock to my brothers and I for sure, it was a very distant relationship that I (and my brothers) had with our father. That didn't make it any easier hearing the news or seeing him in the hospital. It broke us all down, and we thought we would be tough enough to hold it in, but there was no way. This is effecting everyone in a different way, but it is really hitting home with me. We may not have talked all the time, and when we did most of the time it was not pretty, but it does not change that you are still my father. Nothing can prepare you for the feeling you get when you lose a parent, nevermind seeing them take their last breath. I know you are finally at peace now, and I know you are happy that we were able to be there with you when life took its natural course. There is no need to suffer anymore because I can assure you everything is at peace now, I forgive you for the way things were when we were growing up, but look at who we are today, and what we have been able to accomplish. But you are at peace now, and we are at peace with you. Rest well dad, I love you. Forever and always in my heart.
