hiddenmuseIt happened tonight, at 8:30 p.m. Central Time. My mom was there with him, when it happened.
He put up a hell of a fight - standing at death's door so many times over, only to come back again and again.
This time, the fight was too much and his body finally surrendered.
My mom said that she felt so much relief when he passed on, such a weight lifted off her shoulders.
I know that he's so much better off, as morbid as it sounds.
No more suffering and pain for him. No more dreading the ringing of my phone, sitting on edge, wondering when the call would come.
I love you Daddy ... and I miss you already.
