My Dad passed away early Sunday morning. We had a visitation on Tuesday and his funeral on Wednesday. It has been one of the hardest things I have ever been through. He was in the hospital for three weeks. He was in hospice care the last week or so in the hospital. He fought cancer so hard. Even til the end! I love my dad so much! The tears come in waves.
At the funeral, the men doing the service new my dad well. That really helps make something like that personal. They talked about his life as a child and adult. They spoke of his interests.
One thing really stands out that they said. He made sure his family, all of his family, knew about Jesus.
Nothing is more important than that.

Kelley, My heart is hurting for you. I lost my father to cancer several years ago and I know how hard this is for you and your family. I will be praying for you all.
You know my heart is with you and your family. I am so glad you have such a great dad and he taught you about the important things. Love you and hope to see you in person someday, so I can give you a real hug (and Honey too)
Kelley,
I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for you and your family right now.
Thanks you guys! I am so glad that he isn't suffering anymore. But I miss him so much! I would love that Becky!
i've thought of you a lot this week, and prayed each time that the lord would wrap his arms around you and your mom. i'm so sorry kelley, he seemed like a wonderful man.
I am so sorry to hear this! Praying for peace and strength.
I am so very sorry. I hated reading this, yet I know he is in a much better place now. Nothing can take away the hurt of knowing your daddy is gone though. I will be lifting you up in prayer.

I'm so sorry Kelley. Even though I don't blog often, I still follow yours, and I was so sad to see of your dad's passing. At least you have no doubt that he is Heaven and having a wonderful time!
So sorry to hear about your dad. I will continue to pray for you and your family.
