My deepest condolences to the family, especially Don. Your father is in a better place, and I know he’s not suffering anymore, and now is the time of healing for the family. I pray that you will be surrounded by lots of family and friends during this time and that you are provided with peace and love and lots of good memories. 💕🙏
Karen, I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. It’s been so many years, but when I would come to your house, both your mom and dad were so kind to me. Please accept my condolences and prayers.
