Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Narice - I am very sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. At the very least he is at rest and pain free. You have a large and loving family and I know that you will all be a great comfort to each other. Thank you for sharing his story with us.

Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Narice .... What a wonderful, heart-felt eulogy you have written...I'm sure God was waiting for his newest angel with open arms...freeing Dad from any pain and suffering. God Bless his soul and please give Narice and her family the strength and peace of mind they need to get through this sad time of loss. Lots of hugs and prayers, Donelle Caregiver to Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2005 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Narice, This is as bad as when I lost my Dad last month. It's hurts so bad. I am sharing your pain with you. While it's true that terminal cancer patients in the end cannot continue to live with their pain and suffering, they don't want to go and it's so sad that they do. Although in the end my Dad said, " I can't live like this, " he didn't want to die either. What can we do to cure cancer so that no one else has to lose a loved one? God bless you and your family and give you the added strength you are going to need in the weeks and months ahead. > Dad died at 12:30 PM Friday, March 11.2005 after a 3 week battle with Stage > 4 Lung Cancer. > It was quiet and pain free just a short sigh and he went to sleep. > Those interested can read the obituary on the Boston globe or Patriot Ledger > sites which include arrangements. > > Dad was the true model of a man and we will all miss his humor love and great > faith.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 Narice, I'm so sorry that you have lost your father. I know you'll be ok because of your faith and your loving family. Losing a parent is very tough. I've lost both of mine before they got very old (they died in their 60's). What got me through was faith and the thought that they were doing what they truly loved to do in heaven. I still have visions of my mom and dad singing and feasting with all the angels! Music was very important to both of them and they were great singers, especially my mom, so that's why it's comforting. Please know that all your cyber friends are praying for you and your family in this tough time.
