What a great story, Tom, and what a blessing! And what a witness your dad was until the very end.

My dad and I were extremely close. In fact, I stopped by and chatted with him on my way home the night he passed away. Being close to him--in some ways--makes it easier. I know where he is and I know how much we both loved each other.

We will both see our dads again someday...what a day of rejoicing that will be!




"Only after sorrow's hand has bowed your head will life become truly real to you; then you will acquire the noble spirituality which intensifies the reality of life. I go to an all-powerful God. Beyond that I have no knowledge--no fear--only faith."
