sharyn Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 To all my dear friends, Daddy left this world to go home at 7:15 this evening. I was on my way to the hospital and got there 15 min. too late... but I knew the moment he passed. The feeling I had was awesome and when I arrived at the hospital, I said... He died at 7:15 didn't he? And they said Yes he did. I wish I could tell you I am sad, but at this moment I am so happy for Daddy I can't explain the peace I feel. I had to get to the computer to write to you and tell you all about what happened... Daddy and I were very close (as you all knew), I made him promise he would send me a sign as soon as he got to heaven so I knew he was alright... He said he promised he would, he said if I do nothing else, I will do that... Well... on my way home from the hospital, my cell phone rang... I tried to answer it, but couldn't get the connection... I wondered who had tried to call so my husband said "Look in the missed calls log"... I hit the button and it said" Missed it: DAD..... I could only smile... I got my sign... God Bless Him, he is in a better place. I am so fortunate.... Love you all, Sharon (Daddy's little girl) Quote

kimblanchard Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 Sharyn - I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad. How courageous you have been and continue to be. May God grant you and your mother comfort and peace during the next difficult days and months. After my father died when I was 37, I came to realize that you never to old to be Daddy's little girl. In my journal, I wrote that it was the best job that I ever had. Even after all these years, I miss him dearly but I carry him in my heart and so does my son who has never met him. He only knows him through me. Life and love are simply amazing. Maureen Quote

cindi o'h Posted December 15, 2004 Posted December 15, 2004 Sharyn, I am sorry that your Dad is gone from this earth. I have a feeling that your bond with your Dad and my bond with mine are about the same. I had a certain peace about his death, because he had a peace about accepting death as a part of life. He helped me by our little discussions over the years. I wish you healing from your loss to be filled only with comfort and the love he left in your heart. What a beautiful relationship. With love, Cindi o'h Quote
