|
Sad to inform all of you, my father who were 66 years of age has passed away peacefully last night.
He has suffered multiple strokes that render him invalid for the last 6 years.
He were admitted to hospital last Tuesday and were discharged yesterday morning, then 12 hours later, he passed away.
Although sad, I find it a blessing to be able to be with him for the past six years, my daughters could have a grandpa to talk to while they growing up.
Anyhow, life goes on.
Gelan.

Hi Gelan. Please accept my sincerest condolences on the passing of your much loved Dad. As others have said...he is no longer suffering and is in a better place now. You have our prayers friend.
You may remember that I lost my Dad last June, so I know and understand what you are feeling now. It will take a little time for it to really sink in that "Dad" is no longer there, and that you can't just pick up the phone and say hi. However, he will always be in your heart and you can still "talk" to him. You can still ask his advice, and if you are unsure of anything, ask yourself..."What would Dad have done?" I know that this has worked for me and has given me solace in knowing that he isn't really gone; he is just on another plain...a different level. Don't be afraid or scared to shed a tear or two...it will help. Help your kids and wife through this difficult time mate...they will be suffering as much as you and the comfort you provide one another will be an enormous help.
If I can help in any way mate, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Once again...my sincerest condolences.
Cheers, Vince
