What a wonderful gift in a time of such loss...

May the memories and love fill and heal the wounds. And, in the fullness of time, when you next meet, may that joy and love be increased even more...

Peace to you and your family.

 
I'll be praying for you and your family.

May the peace of God, which surpasses all our human understanding, console and guard your hearts and souls through Jesus Christ.

in situations like this you feel helpless like there's nothing you can do, but the reality of it is you can spend time with him and be strong and try to make him comfortable and know how you feel.

all the best from us....

 
Thoughts and condolences to you and your entire family

Gary,

I've just been there where you're at. My dad passed away from cancer in September. Feel free to email me as much as you want. I'm still adjusting to the loss and can share your pain. Also, I'll say that the people on this board are VERY supportive, and it helps greatly to know that even though your Dad is gone, that there are still people in this world that give a damn about you. Prayers coming from Central Illinois.

Thank you all so much for the kind words and prayers. My Dad passed before I could get back. I missed his passing by about 10 minutes. My mother, his wife of 53 years, was with him as was my sister. He did not suffer any in the end and for that I am grateful. While he was still awake, my final words to him were that I loved him and his to me were " I'm proud of you". I'll treasure that until I die.

As well you should. There is no greater compliment in the world.

When my dad died after a long illness, I felt relief that his suffering was over and he was at peace in a better place. Hopefully on some level you can feel this way as well.

 
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Glad though that you were able to share those moments with your dad before he passed away.

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. God comfort you.
