    My dad passed away yesterday

    It's been a hard day. I share a birthday with my dad April 7. He passed away a few hours before his 75th birthday.

    A hard thing. My dad doesn't have much longer due to cancer.
    I can imagine how alone you might feel right now.
    I pray in this time you don't forget that the Lord is eternally with you.

    Much sympathy to you and family. Hard times indeed. My dad passed at 78 years old and is now 120. He was born 1899.
    It was told to my Mother that I would not make it past 14 years because of a hole in the heart and I am cruising along at 84. Look toward the postitive, trust in the lord and love one another. God's Blessings to all. Bill

    My sincerest condolences to you and your family. My father has advanced stage COPD and I expect a call anytime and know that it will crush me. I can only imagine your pain at this time and wish you nothing but the strength and companionship of your family to get you through this. Best wishes my friend.

    Prayers up, my friend. He got a lot more years than some of us do, and I hope and pray for you that they were good years. May he rest in peace.

    My dad also passed away at 75. That was on December 18, 1982. Not sure why, but it felt sort of strange when I passed 75 years old. Prayers for you and your family. Always tough to lose a parent.

    I'll pray for you in guidance to get through the loss. I had lost a child when she was 10 years old. I think that is the hardest thing to go though. I should call my parents more often than i do too. God bless you and your family.
