When I was with my own father as he passed, I couldn't help but think "this man has taught me everything I know, and now he is even teaching me how to die with dignity and grace." You are likewise teaching your boys. And, hey, as you know, you will live on in them. Even as you are hanging on the other side, they will be setting up your gear here with us and carrying forward. Godspeed and God bless.
It is obvious that you'll be missed. The tears shed will not be for you, but for those that know and miss you. You are an inspiration! May we all travel to the next life with such strength!

Bon courage pour le voyage. You are loved and will also be welcomed by ones who love you once you have made your way. God bless you.
peace be with you friend
Thank you for your bravery . Thank you for being a great Father and teaching those around you the "right way" . Please know your journey is with God not to him for he has been with you all along . Thank you for making me realize.

You are bold and strong. Most of us are unprepared for certain knowledge of our demise. Prayers sent!

Peace and comfort to you and your family
I saw your post a minute after you submited it . . .
. . . as always I have struggled with what to say.
I wish I had met you on this side . . . but I guess I have . . .
I will refresh my memory of you from your posts . . .
. . . In the future I hope to see you clutching a white stone . . .
. . . but for now leave you with . . .

God speed my new friend.
Prayers and peace to you and your loved ones. I truly admire your words and attitude. Thank you for the reminder that there are more important things in this world than the petty issues that distract us along the way.
