A Moment of Silence

June 28, 2015

My loving father passed on to heaven on Saturday, June 27, 2015.  He is no longer in pain nor suffering the emotional trauma of losing his wife of 49 1/2 years back in 2012.  There is comfort in knowing that they are back together again.  Therefore I am taking a moment of silence here on my blog to mourn the profound loss of my dad and grieve properly.  I appreciate everyone’s thoughts and prayers.  I’ll be back in a few days.  My advice for now is to go hug your loved ones and tell them how much they mean to you.  Life is precious and every day is a gift!

A moment of silence for my dad

    Stacie, I’m so sorry to hear of his passing. My heart goes out to you. I’m happy that he is no longer suffering and is reunited with your Mom now but I also know how your heart is going to grieve. If you need to talk or vent or scream, remember I know what you are going through and I’m here for you.
