Awful.
Rip.
Good lord... Prayers up for his family.
This is frigging horrible...
Sorry for your loss, Grams...
God bless.
Thanks. And God does indeed bless. I’ve told God that when I join my daughter in Heaven he has a lot of explaining to do.
What has been most painful was that she had an eleven-year-old son whose father (ex-husband) had absolutely no compassion or understanding and simply commented “He’ll get over it”. Still makes my heart hurt.
RE your Grandson:
Having lost my Dad when I was 15 years old, well... you never get over it. In fact, it got worse as the years rolled on, and I realized the magnitude of the loss. Especially when I needed advice on making decisions.
I think that that experience made ME a better father, though... and maybe a better man, overall.
One hopes, anyway...
I’ll keep you and your family in prayer.
Prayers appreciated. Thanks so much.
