on my way home
I am on my way home now. My father passed away on Thursday morning at six am while I held him and my mother spoke softly to him. It has been a very ... Um , I can not think of the right adjective to use. It has not been really tiring or sad ,long or stressful. Is just been the week that my Dad died and I am so thankful that I was there and got to love and take care of him. Thank you Lord. You are so good to me. I would like to tell you more about my dad when I get home.I miss him but I am fine,just ready to see my husband and kids. Thank you for your prayers. Love Jo

I am deeply sad for your loss,
but celebrating your dads change of address as he will now, enjoy dinner set before him, by the Savioir, G-d of All...
What glory divine, what peace sublime....what a Father we worship...in thought, Jinji
I pray you arrived home safely. Please know that your entire family was in my prayers this past week. Hopefully we can get together next week and have a cup of tea. Susan
