Very sad.

I think I am in shock. My brother and sister phoned me 30 mins ago from the UK to say my father died in his sleep. Sitting here waiting for a member/friend to get here as he told me not to drive.

Have not picked up and won't just don't know how I feel or anything really.

Dad was 92 and passed away peacfully.

Oh (((Kevin))) I am so sorry for your loss! I am glad there is someone on the way to be with you. Losing a father is a very difficult thing. 92- wow! He must have lived a very full life!

My thoughts will be with you.

Kevin...

My sincere condolences on the passing of your Dad. I feel very sad for you right now, you were one of the first to welcome me here and I feel a closeness to you...

My father died in "61" at the age of 36 when I was six years old, he was buried on my seventh birthday. I only have one or two very small memories of him. One small bright spot is that your Dad lived a long life. Its never easy though...

Please stay strong my friend...

I'm sending Positive thoughts and prayers across the ocean to you...

Again, I'm very sorry to hear this news...

One day at a time.

Steve

May God bless you and your family. I am sorry to hear of your father's death. I can imagine how hard and frustrating it must be for you to be so far from your family at this time. I hope you will find love and support from your friends in Australia at this time. Hugs to you and I will include you and your family in my prayers. Minah

(((Kevin))) Please accept my condolences on this incredible loss.

He got to leave the world knowing you are clean and sober. As a parent, I can tell you this is something I want for me. Thank you for giving him that.

Let your Higher Power guide you, allow the comfort of those who love you soak in.

Prayers going up for him, for you ... for comfort, for peace.

(((LovingPrayers)))

noguard, my prayers are with you. I know it hurts. I lost my dad five months ago, and everytime I turn a corner, it seems, his memory is waiting there for me.

((((noguard)))

Peace & Love,
Sugah
