Prayer Request

Hi Everybody,

 I know I’ve been away for a while. Life has been very hectic here of late. My Dad had been in 2 different hospitals and a nursing home since May 17^th. Today we laid him to rest. He passed away this Tuesday. He fought a gallant fight but in the end he was ready to pass on to the next life. I am very thankful to the folks at Alive Hospice at St. Thomas who helped make his last days as peaceful as possible. My Dad always asked how much weight I had lost; I made my –100 pound mark last Thursday when I was able to tell him I had lost102 pounds. I am thankful my Dad was able to see me healthier and happier.

 The days to come will be hard. I would like to request Prayers for my family especially my Dear Mother. Mom was by his side the entire 3 months they celebrated their 48^th wedding anniversary in the hospital.

 

Thanks,

Steve White

Steve,          I lost my father when I was 18, therefore I can relate to what a great loss this is for you!!  I am so very happy you were able to share your LOSER news with your father and of course, I will keep your family and especially your Mother in my prayers, it sounds like they had a wonderful life together!!

It sounds like your father has left a true legacy of love and compassion with his family.  God Bless you and your loved ones during this sad time.  I have prayed for peace and comfort for you all.  Hugs!

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Even though we as adults expect to bury our parents, it's never easy to let them go. I'm glad your family had the time to tell him goodbye.

I lost my dad 5 years ago after a lengthy illness and I am grateful for the last weeks we had.

Special prayers being sent to you & your family. Congrats on the 100 lbs. I know your dad was proud of you. Ellen

Please accept my sympathies and know that you and your family are in my heart and my prayers.

Steve,  I am so sorry to hear about your Dad. I will be praying for you and your family during this hard time in your life. I am however glad your father had the chance to see you healhier and happier. I know that probably meant the world to him.  Congrats on reaching your 100 lbs lost mark. Just know we are all here for you if you need anything at all. Juanita

Hey Steve,  Prayers are lifted up for you and your family.  It's never easy to lose a family member, I know.  My mother passed away 22 years ago form a suicide.  Just one week before this happened, I decided it was time to put the illegal things I was doing away for good!  My mother knew of the things I was doing and never approved, but never said anything either.  As far as she was concerned, I was an adult and it was my decision.  Anyway, the regret I have in my life is, I never told her I had quit doing drugs!  I am sure your Dad was elated at the weight loss you have had!   Like I said buddy, Prayers are being lifted for you, your Mom, and your family!  If you need anything else, please ask!
