My father passed around 2 this morning. It hasn't quite hit yet.

I know it wasn't unexpected, but I'm sure it's still a shock. Sending *hugs*. RIP.

Thank you so much. The hospice folks - all praise to them for their grace and kindness - said yesterday that it would be soon.

I'm so sorry. Wishing you peace and comfort.

[epiphyta]

Thank you. At the moment I am mostly feeling relief that he is no longer in pain.

*Hugs* from here. I'm very sorry for your loss. It may have been expected, but "It's always sudden."

*hugs* I did wonder who was going to be the first to quote Buffy at me. :)

Just...a big hug and only a virtual one at that. Though death may be expected there is no way to prepare for it. I'm glad you saw him not so long ago.
(((Hugs and more hugs)))

[epiphyta]

Virtual hugs count. *hugs and hugs you*

Oh Epi I am sorry. I am so glad that you saw him recently, and that you know he was well cared for. But no matter how much you know it is coming, the loss still leaves such a blank space.

Thank you, my dear Wombat. I am also very glad that I saw him in August and know that he was able to pass at home, as he wished.
