Mrs. Redo 44 #1 Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) I wanted to thank all of you for the prayers you sent for my dad. Yesterday morning at 1:54 am 8/15 God took my dad to heaven.....he fought a long hard battle not wanting to leave us. My parents just celebrated their 56th Anniversary on July 31st which was a blessing. My dad is a wonderful man, who loved his family and friends so much. He made his steel guitar play beautiful country music my whole life. He was on this earth for 81 yrs and I was truly blessed to have him as my dad. He never knew a stranger he touched so many through his years. Every person he ever met learned something from him...I miss him sooooooo much but I know we will meet again...Please keep your prayers coming our way, the next few days are going to be so hard...Our family thanks you from the bottom of our hearts........

stevasaurus 22,286 #5 Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Lola...that is probably the nicest way of talking about your loss that I have ever heard...and what a great picture of the 2 of you. I know it has been not easy the last few months, but I just love the way you put it. My prayers and Chris's with you and Terry and your Dad. You know that.

JC 1965 1,528 #10 Posted August 17, 2014 Lola, My deepest prayers go out to you and Terry in this time of terrible grief you are dealing with. Sounds like your father was one in a million. There are no words that anyone can say to make your hurt go away but time will help. Always remember the good times you had with him and how blessed you are to have had him in your life. I am truly sorry for your loss. God bless both of you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
