Totally lost for words. I truly value your courage and openness in sharing your love and sadness in your father's passing. Death is a necessary part of life, and those whom it has touched can attest to its profound impact on our lives. Please let time heal, it will. Hold those you love close and take care. be well and remain true to yourself. Mike MV,

Thank you for sharing this very personal information. Lynn Mike,

I have (because I am older than you - ha!) passed through the seasons of dying for both my parents and one of my wife's parents(none of their passings were "pretty") so I can relate to the loss you and your family are feeling at this time. As you know, your dad is better off now than he was a few weeks ago but those of you left on earth have a grieving process to journey through for weeks/months/years. My thoughts and prayers (I grew up a Catholic and have been an evangelical Christian for over 30 years now) are with you and your family during this difficult transition time. Next time you are in town let's have breakfast or lunch and talk about scrum or what life is like being an atheist. Your friend and colleague! Ron Mike,

The people he loved were also there when he gave his last breath. I can very much relate to your story. I am confident your father knew he was surrounded by his loved ones and wish you and your relatives the very best in these difficult times. Peter Hi Mike,
