My father followed my mother this morning. I am simultaneously heartbroken and at peace that they're resting together.A few years ago he got mad when we talked to him about a living will. "G-- Dammit I expect my kids to be smart enough to know when I'm dying"
We knew and never more so than after we lost Mom on the 4th. She was his reason.
I remember sitting at the supper table and one of us asking if we were on a sinking boat who he'd save. He didn't miss a beat "Your Mama". The thing is he had five children vying to be favorite and five children genuinely believing that they were.
We'll be honoring our parents together on July 6th. Nothing was left unsaid. We knew and they knew and that's forever.

This is hard... But "hard" is not the same thing as "bad".It's still hard. Your family is on my mind, belle.
My dad always told me I was his favorite daughter. Never mind the fact that I'm the only daughter.May your parents' memory be a blessing.
What a wonderful quality of your Dad's, five children and ALL WERE his favorites.

Peace and blessings to you and your family
