Thank you. We had known this was coming for quite a while, but still I had a good cry last night and I am feeling OK now. :shk:

Hi NiceGuyEddie.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers go out to you and your family.
You have a huge ATS family here, and there is a ton of support. I speak for many, that if you want to talk, or vent - don't hesitate for a moment to contact me. I've never said truer words. I'm here for you.

I can't even fathom how you feel at this time, my parents are both into their 70's, but doing very well health wise. I dread the day they pass, but know the time will come.

We had a family gathering Sunday for my father-in-law that passed away a year ago and still the emotions ran high. And even after 20 years I wish I could give my grandmother a call on the phone and just say hello.

Death is always a part of living, and I hope you find the strength to continue on with his memory close to your heart.


Best wishes,
anx.............

Here's one of my favorite paintings, no real significance to it other that my grand parents had a print of it in their living room, and my grandmother died the year before last.

So sorry to hear about your loss.

I lost my mom in 2001 and my dad in 2005. It is a terrible thing to happen.

It's OK to cry too.

Yes he definitely is.

I was told that he asked my cousin what he thought is on the other side, and my cousin replied "Divine Mercy". At that he smiled and he seemed relieved.

Thanks again for your kindness all

I'm sorry to read that your father has passed on, please except my condolences and best wishes for you and your family.
