Well my dad passed about 30 minutes ago. He is resting easier now and in is heaven. He had a tough fight with cancer. I'll be ok, I have prepared myself for this day but, Mom sure could use some prayers.
Fishingpox.....you and your mother will have lots of prayers, I'll make sure of that. I truly regret your loss, our Lord will see to your father, he's in good hands now. My Dad died from prostate cancer 8 years ago, and I know he's in a better place now. May God be with you and your family, I'll pray for his deliverance and for you and your family.
Lost my father in 98 from cancer. I know how you feel. I lost my father, best friend, and fishing partner. Will be thinking of you and your mother. God bless.

FP: I'm really sorry about your Dad. We''ll be praying for your Mom, and you and the rest of the family. Lost mine last year to cancer. It's never easy.

Raised by my grandparents and I lost one to cancer and the other to diabetes. You and your mother are in my prayers. Here are the lyrics to a song which helped me get through the loss.
Peace be still.
Master, the tempest is raging!
The billows are tossing high!
The sky is o’ershadowed with blackness,
No shelter or help is nigh;
Carest Thou not that we perish?
How canst Thou lie asleep,
When each moment so madly is threatening
A grave in the angry deep?
(Refrain)
The winds and the waves obey Thy will,
Peace, be still!
Whether the wrath of the storm tossed sea,
Or demons or men, or whatever it be
No waters can swallow the ship where lies
The Master of ocean, and earth, and skies;
They all shall sweetly obey Thy will,
Peace, be still! Peace, be still!
They all shall sweetly obey Thy will,
Peace, peace, be still!
Master, with anguish of spirit
I bow in my grief today;
The depths of my sad heart are troubled
Oh, waken and save, I pray!
Torrents of sin and of anguish
Sweep o’er my sinking soul;
And I perish! I perish! dear Master
Oh, hasten, and take control.
Refrain
Master, the terror is over,
The elements sweetly rest;
Earth’s sun in the calm lake is mirrored,
And heaven’s within my breast;
Linger, O blessèd Redeemer!
Leave me alone no more;
And with joy I shall make the blest harbor,
And rest on the blissful shore.
Refrain

Lost my Dad in 95 - Prostate Cancer - Mom's are tough - but she will need prayers and lots of hugs from who they will always see as their little boy - my Mom listens to me more like I am her Dad today but still tells everyone I am her Baby - I am 45 now - a 45 year old baby - my wife agrees with the baby part - you and your Mom has our prayers - you supply the hugs
