I can't believe it. Just 24 hours ago, we were talking and laughing on the phone, then suddenly an aggressive pneumonia appeared, and he is gone. My father peacefully died today, at 4:25, his family around him, bathed in our love and that of his Savior. I am tired, and back home. Tomorrow brings challenges of it's own, so tonight I pray.
Dad, may your precious soul depart out of this world;
In the Name of God the Father Almighty Who created you;
In the Name of Jesus Christ Who redeemed you;
In the Name of the Holy Spirit Who sanctifies you.
May your rest be this day in peace,
and your dwelling place in the Paradise of God.
Into your hands, O merciful Savior, I commend my father,
Glenn. Acknowledge, I humbly beseech You, a sheep of
Your own fold, a lamb of Your own flock, a sinner of Your
own redeeming. Receive him into the arms of Your mercy,
into the blessed rest of everlasting peace, and into the
glorious company of the Saints in light. Amen.
Just wanted to express my condolences and let you know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
