My dad passed away last night

Post by FedoraDave »

He was 90 years old, and his health and strength had been failing him for the last couple of years. He needed constant care, and my mother was having a harder and harder time taking care of him herself.

So many things I could say about his life and the person he was. But I can't put it all together right now.

Thanks for your support.

I lost my Dad last year, Jan 2015, it was unexpected as he was in good health. I'm expecting to hear the news about my grandma (Dad's mom) any time now as she's in the hospital with other issues and now has came down with pneumonia. They're saying she could go anytime now, so I definitely understand.
