Reconnecting Again

Dear BraveHeart Sisters,'
It's been a while since I've been on here. So much has happened. I have spent the last 1 1/2 years caring for my dad part time while he was in the nursing home after a mild stroke. We did not want to leave him alone if at all possible. So, my 3 sisters and I have shared our time with him off and on.

However, I finally lost him on into eternity on October 6. The funeral was on Oct. 11.TODAY would have been his 91st birthday. So, he missed having another birthday by about a month. The last three weeks have been very busy for us in winding up his business affairs although my brother is the trustee of the estate. I have sent out dozens and dozens of thank you cards, written the obituary, newspaper articles, as well as newspaper thank you's. There are so many advantages of having lived in a small community.

It has been a time of grief for me. However, I have had lots of comfort in having some supportive friends that understand the grief process. I feel so sorry for people that have never experienced loss and do not have the compassion or ability to offer their support.

Here is the obituary for more insight on this fabulous human being that I was so blessed to journey with while on earth. I miss you so much daddy.
