    I know I was blessed to be able to say good bye as I did. I also know dad was spared a very terrible death as I had seen a friend waste away from the same cancer a few years ago. You all have been very kind and your prayers and words have helped. Thank you.

    My sincerest condolances at the passing of your father and how nice it was to read about your relationship with him and the love and respect that you have for him.

    Know that he is in the company of great men, in a better place than you or I and that he took with him only two things, the love he shared with the nearest and dearest to him and the memories of life and loved ones.

    My dad passed on when I was 19 and now at 51 it still seems like yesterday that I spoke to him about life and passing on. Always cherish those moments that you shared with him and look forward to ones to come.

    He now gets to shoot on ranges that have no cross winds, rain and great pullers in the pits. (Now that's heaven....)

    My most sincere condolences; I lost my dad a year ago and I was not able to see him before he died. My mom died 8 years ago and we were 1400 miles apart so couldn't make it to say goodbye to her either. You have had a special relationship with your parents, one that is sadly lacking in many families. God bless! Emery

    I am truly very sorry for your loss.

    I now have to go call my Dad, even though I have talked to him already once today.

    He lives about 600 miles from me, but we remain very close and try to talk at least once a day.

    I cherish the conversations and the time spent with him, even if we only discuss nonsense.

    I am sorry to learn of your loss. I will keep yall in my prayers. From what I have seen I am sure your father was a fine man and is in Heaven now with many other fine folks.
    When I think of my grandfather passing I envision him sitting front row at a Hank Williams show in Heaven. Believe it or not that does help.
    Take care.

    I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Rejoice in the knowledge that ther is One greater that now cares for your father and has healed and restored him. I pray that the Lord will send you peace and comfort in this time and heal your grief.

    I was fortunate to be able to tell my mother that I loved her before she passed some 16 years ago. The memory of that and the knowledge that I will agin see her is a comfort that still stays with me. I sincerely hope that your last experiences with your father are a comfort and a become a fond memory as mine have with my mother.
