At 10am today, my father passed away at the Hotel Dieu. Unfortunately, none of us where there to witness his passing, but our thoughts were with him constantly.
I'm on my way to the hospital now. Thanks for everyone checking in. I will post the funeral notice as soon as I know.

I believe that we have some control over when we pass and I believe that since he had his quiet time with everyone that he did not need to wait for you all to return today.
My thoughts are with you. Take care of yourself.
Hugs

Date: 2007-07-19 03:58 pm (UTC)I can now understand some of what you went through... My dad's been admitted to emergency last night at 3am. They still don't know what's wrong...
I'd like to send you and your family our most sincere condolences.
Hugs
Tammy & Michael

Date: 2007-07-20 04:21 am (UTC)You've painted a really lovely portrait of him whenever you've mentioned him. It sounds like you enjoyed the rare and special gift of a simple, loving closeness shared between father and son, unfettered by the chasm of too many things unsaid.
My thoughts and condolences are with you and your family. I will light a candle tonight in his name, and his memory. With much love, C.
