Exactly One Year Ago...

Right now...

My sister and I began our final vigil at my Dad's bedside.

He passed at 12:10 on Oct 1st. At the ripe age of 92.

Very sad at the time. But he lived his entire life for that instant. And our sadness was selfish.

Not looking for sympathy. Or condolences. (but thanks to all of you who were supportive last year)


If you have the luxury of a living parent, give them a call or a visit soon. It sucks when you no longer have that option.

    Be thankful you had him for 92 years, I lost mine almost 30 years ago.

    Yes.
    My sister and I were just talking about how very lucky we were.
    I could not have asked for more.
