Thank you all for prayers before just wanted to ask you to pray for me and my family especially my dad, my parents had been married for 60 years. I was very close to my Mama an I will miss her greatly but on the scale of eternity life has just begun an I will see her soon.
Please pray for comfort, peace and love beyond our understanding to cover us. Thank you to all my brothers and sisters, love you all.

loss. My parents were married over 60 years as well before my father passed away first. Mom followed eight years later. That kind of marriage is very seldom seen today. Instead of "Till Death do us Part", it seems to be until the first bump in the road. You have a lifetime of family memories to call on going forward, think about those in this time of recent loss.

Thank you for allowing us to share in this time of need my brother. We’re all at our best when we’re united by love, and it’s in these times that our appreciation & compassion for each other grows. We’re praying for you. I know this Holy Spirit will draw you, your Dad, and your family closer together and bless your relationships through the memories of times with your dear Mama and help you to cherish the time you have left in this world with each other.
My parents were married 62 years, Dad hung on in hospice with all of his strength to make it to his last anniversary with Mom. He hadn’t spoken to anyone for several days as I stayed with him there at the end but he would squeeze his eyelids or grip my hand to respond to me. I knew what he was doing & why, so I told him to keep saving his strength and I would set things up...I knew he heard me. I’d gathered several of their wedding pictures and bought a nice bouquet of flowers which I set out in his hospital room and took my time carefully giving him a good shave that morning before Mom got there from the house. It was wonderful! Mom walked in and said “Hey Gene” as she opened the door, as usual...and Dad opened his eyes, pushed himself up in the bed, and said in a quiet & sure voice “Hi Carolyn, I love you”. They had almost 2 hours of time together on their Anniversary day before Dad closed his eyes to rest again....he was at peace. He didn’t speak again...he didn’t have to, he’d already shown & said all that was needed to encourage our love & gratitude. Two days later Dad passed over into eternity.
We’re so blessed HumbleServant to have the examples of love & commitment that our parents gave us in their marriages, our families, and their daily lives with others, and even more blessed to have Christ’s love that bonds us together in all times and all situations. May the love of Christ continue to grow and abound in your lives.

Thank you for sharing, that’s an awesome legacy. My dad caring for my mom to the end was so sweet. He wanted to care for her as he would want to be cared for. He was way outside his comfort zone but did an awesome job.

Stay Closer Than You Can Ever Imagine to Your Dad
Posted: Jan 8, 2020, 11:05 AM

2 years ago when my Mom passed, after 51 years of marriage, my Dad was targeted by all kinds of evil people (women mainly) to prey on their emotions and grief for profit. I wish I knew then what I knew now.

Here is something that helped me in my loss. It is a poem. May it be of some healing in your time of mourning.
Death Is Nothing At All
Henry Scott-Holland By Henry Scott-Holland
Death is nothing at all.
It does not count.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
Nothing has happened.
Everything remains exactly as it was.
I am I, and you are you,
and the old life that we lived so fondly together is untouched, unchanged.
Whatever we were to each other, that we are still.
Call me by the old familiar name.
Speak of me in the easy way which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was.
Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was.
There is absolute and unbroken continuity.
What is this death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you, for an interval,
somewhere very near,
just round the corner.
All is well.
Nothing is hurt; nothing is lost.
One brief moment and all will be as it was before.
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!
