Sad and Glad but not very.

my father died and I am sad and glad.

Mostly sad. Mostly deeply sad… but glad because his suffering is over, glad because he knew us until the end, that I had the blessing of saying goodbye and releasing him to the Lord. Thankful that he was pretty active until a few days before, that his mind was pretty clear, thankful that my brother came for a few days, but incredibly sad that I have lost my daddy, He was the best dad and I am so thankful that I got to keep him so long. Ninety years is a long life. My parents would have been married seventy years next month. A long, lovely marriage. Such a gift to have been a part of their lives. Thank you, Lord.
