ANOTHER UPDATE ON MY DAD
THIS IS THE HARD PART FOR ME TO WRITE, EXCEPT WHEN I HAVE TO TELL YOU ALL THAT HE HAS GONE HOME.
MY STEPMOM AND I HAVE JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE AGAIN, WE HAVE DECIDED TO PICK THE PALLBEARERS AND THE SONGS TO HAVE WHEN HE LEAVES US. I AM AT MY SADDEST NOW, BUT I KNOW THERE IS A SADDER DAY COMING.
I WILL SING AT MY DAD'S FUNERAL, BUT I WILL HAVE THE SONG ALREADY RECORDED SO THAT I DONT HAVE TO "TRY TO MAKE IT THRU IT" WHILE THERE.
HE IS NOT HIMSELF TODAY, AND DID NOT KNOW WHO I WAS....THAT WAS SO SAD, BUT I AM TRYING HARD TO BE STRONG.....
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU ALL.....FOR ALL THE PRAYERS AND SUPPORT.....YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH IT MEANS TO ME.....NO IDEA!
I WILL BE LURKING FOR A WHILE NOW, UNTIL I HAVE TO MAKE THE HARDEST POST TO YOU ALL.......
I APPRECIATE ALL THE WONDERFUL WORDS OF SUPPORT, THE POEMS, AND THE EMAILS.....I LOVE YOU ALL FOR THIS....THANK YOU JUST DOESNT SEEM ENOUGH.
THANK YOU ALL AGAIN.....PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF I DO NOT RESPOND TO ALL THE REPLIES........JUST KNOW THAT I AM SO THANKFUL TO HAVE YOU ALL.......
WITH ALL MY LOVE, HUGS AND THANKS.
KIM AND FAMILY
Hi Kim,
I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. When my dad died I never got to tell him goodbye. I miss my dad alot. He was my best friend and I had a very hard time getting over it. One night he came to me in a dream and said for me to go on with my life. That dream seemed so real to me but it made me wake up and see what I have before me. After that I was fine. I just wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Kim,
I don't have the words to ease this great pain, but I just stopped and sang this song for you and your father. Look to the Lord.
The Last Mile of the Way
If I walk in the pathway of duty,
If I work till the close of the day,
I shall see the great King in His beauty,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.
Refrain:
When I've gone the last mile of the way,
I will rest at the close of the day;
And I know there are joys that await me,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.
If for Christ I proclaim the glad story,
If I seek for His sheep gone astray,
I am sure He will show me His glory,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.
In His love,
Frances
