My brother, sisters and I met at the funeral home to finalize the arrangements today. The visitation and funeral will be on Wednesday which just happens to be my birthday. 56 years to the day after my Mother first saw me I will see her for the last time. Given the history between my mother and I it seems sort of fitting.
So, so sorry man. I had to tell my mother when it was time to pull life support from my father. Its horrible to watch a parent die. What I can assure you is, it does get better with time. You will hurt and grieve and eventually you will laugh and remember the good. I would like to think it was a prayer answered and believe that it was. Good vibes headed your way.
Praying for you and your family Little Chief. God most definitely answers prayers and is hearing and sending all these peoples prayers your way to comfort you and lift you up in this time. May God bless you and your family always. Hillview Hunt Club
I still talk/pray with my father who’s been gone 20 yrs now. I’m still trying to make him proud everyday. Try thinking about the good times and the hugs, smiling, kisses and laughter. Until we meet again... Got a little choked up there. God bless us all.
Very sorry for your loss. Sending loving thoughts to help you (and family) get through this difficult time and the upcoming days.
Sorry for your loss and all the events involved in it. We all tend to get caught up in the shuffle of everyday life and forget that it must all come to an end one day, no matter what we do to avoid it. Whenever we lose someone close, it sends a stark reminder to get out and enjoy every day and all that this life has to offer us! We are a lucky few to know what the woods/outdoors has to offer. Not to mention, our beloved bow hunting revolves around life and death. In these tough times, its best to lean on others for support. Prayers for you and your loved ones. P.S. Thank you for the reminder to appreciate every single day and all the moments that come with it- both good and bad
Thank you all for the kind words, thoughts and prayers. The funeral went very well today. The two ministers were my brother and my brother-in-law. Yeah, I'm definitely the black sheep of the family. On a weird note I had a few family members actually wish me a happy birthday AT the funeral. How is that supposed to work?
