    Peace, at last...

    For those who have been following my Papa's ongoing struggle, he lost his battle this morning and is finally at peace. We told him yesterday that it was alright if he felt it was his time to go, that we would take care of my grandma and we'd be alright.

    I knew this was coming, yesterday he looks so pale and more frail than usual. He said goodbye to the world at 4:45am. Please keep my family, most importantly, my sweet Memaw in your prayers, thoughts, what have you.

    I know he is happy now, pain free, and will never have to undergo another test, doctor prodding at him, etc. He's finally at peace and with his mother, that he dearly loved.


    Rest well my sweet Papa,



    I just wanted to add a big thank you to everyone who has kept my family in your thoughts for the past almost two years. I really appreciate it.

    ~Kay, Athena, Ace, Kiara, Mufasa, & Alice!

    So sorry to hear of your Papa's passing, Kay. It is never easy losing a loved one even if you know it is time for them to go. You and your family have been in our prayers and will continue to be. We all know you and your family will take good care of your Memaw.

    As Diana has said, no matter how much you try to prepare, and how much you try to understand that it is best for the person, it is never easy to lose a loved one. Kay, you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. {{{Hugs}}}

    RIP Papa.

    It's like our furbabies too...we know they have been with us a long time, and we know they are at peace, but that is sometimes small comfort with all the pain we feel.

    Your Papa was a fighter - and had a sense of humour during a couple of times in hospital, I think recall you saying.

    Rest peacefully, sir - and let your wife know you are with her.

    {{{hugs}}} for you and your family, Kay.

    One part of the Cycle of Life which is always so hard for all of us to accept.

    RIP, PAPA.

    Your Grandpa hung on to life because it's so precious and he loved your Grandma and all of you so much. Now he's at rest and soon will enjoy his new life and look forward to the reunion that will happen in time. RIP, dear one and peace to your family.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    I am so sorry Kay your family will be in my thoughts. Your grandfather is pain free now.

    I am so sorry to be reading this, but at least he is out of pain and at peace. It must have been so hard for you and your family to go through, watching it all.

    Hopefully he is up there now, and he's also watching over your friend Nicole, Mia's mommy, and they will be looking in on you all.

    Peace and prayers coming to you, Kay.

    Even though you know he is at peace now and you were preparing for him to go, it doesn't make it any less painful.

    Hugs to you and your family, Kay.

    RIP Papa
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!
