Dad passed away 7 March 09
Dad passed away this evening, 7 March 2009.
I feel I lost Dad when I was forced, by his dementia, to put him in the nursing home in August. Dad’s time in the nursing home was not easy for him, Mom, Glenda (my sister) or me. He did not understand why he was there. Our mother is doing well and relieved that Dad is now at peace. They were married for 66 years and as she says, "We had a great life together." He did not fight the nurses up until this last week. Dad is now free to go fishing and hunting as he loved.
So, it is a time to remember the good times and move forward.
