Life Goes On

Yesterday at 3:55 pm -surrounded by his children and eleven

of his sixteen grandchildren-

Dad sighed and went to sleep.

Yesterday was for tears.

Today we’ll celebrate his life.

“““““““““““““

Thank you all for your support. I was told that I was the strong one. I have all of you to thank for that. I couldn’t have done it without you.

:*

    You went through this extremely well I want to say. Of course there were tears and sadeness and everything that can shake you down in such circumstances but even though I don’t know your tribe, I’m sure you were their pillar.
    Smile to the life :)

    You are an inspiration, MM. Your family is blessed to have you in it. I wish I could say something to make it easier, but all I have is “sorry.” Doesn’t seem adequate. Sending you lots of love and prayers.
