Gena, I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my dad about 15yrs ago and I still miss his smiling face, but I know I will see him again one day as you will see your dad too. Remember the good times and he will be with you forever. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Blessings,Karen

Nancy, Mom really is taking it hard. We had a private family viewing this morning. She kept holding his hand and promising she would be with him soon, and to have her kisses ready.
They were married 62 years. He was a wonderful husband and father.

Kris, I got your hug just when I needed it. I told mom that one was from you too.
Love you guys

I am getting ready to leave for the visitation and funeral.
My Dad was a WWII vet, and it will a military funeral when we get to the graveside.
I hope I can control my emotions. I get all choked up when they play "Taps", even if I am not close to the person.
I am going to miss him so much.
Thank you guys for all the love and support!
Love Ya!
