A sad time with Dad's passing...

Hi... I have been away in my "home town" for the past 2 weeks, as my Dad passed away on the 19th April.

Dad had a massive stroke 30 years ago when he was 51, but with my Mum's gentle and loving care at home, she kept him going until he was 81 years old. He was admitted to hospital on Sunday and passed away within 24 hours. I have been with my Mum helping her with all those things one has to do after a passing of a loved one.... Mum and Dad just celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniversay in March.

Thank you to Toni for putting a message on my previous blog in the comments.

I will "blog" again in a couple of days... still feel like it has been a bad dream.

Until next post..
