Remembering Dad
Time to reflect, time to think and time to remember. Dad passed away in his sleep this morning. Peaceful. Without pain. Just slipped away.Hopefully he was singing and dancing to Burning Rings of Fire all the way to those Pearly Gates. (funny, Pearl - my Mom's name, how fitting) Not sure you can sing that particular song inside the gates though.
I'm sure Mom, all my Grandparents and Prettiest Cousin's Dad and Sisters-In-Laws were there to greet him with his funny little smile and the silly fishing hat he loved so much. Lord have mercy for all the drama THAT bunch will make.
A bitter sweet end to a battle hard-fought til the very end. Here's to you Dad. I'll see you on the other side.
