Last Tuesday I had to put my buddy of 14 years, Reno the Wonder Dog down. Then on Saturday this happened. Not looking for sympathy but just to encourage anyone that no matter how bad your week is going, it can be worse. And to rehash the cliche to enjoy the time you have

Purple, I'm glad you were there for your dad's last few days on this earth. Those will be memories of service that you will never forget. Thinking and praying for your family, because nothing is harder than losing your dad. And I'm sorry for the loss of your dog, too.

I'm sorry for your loss. After reading his obit, it looks like he had plans for eternity. I can't speak from experience but can be an ear(or a set of eyes behind a computer monitor) if you ever need it. I'll be praying for all he left behind.

You made me realize I've been putting off calling my grandfather because his mind is starting to go. I should call him before it gets any worse. Thanks for the encouragement through this.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing. There is never a good time for a loss. But I echo the sentiments about it sounding like your father's house was in order. That's a blessing!

Call your grandfather. I was only able to have 2 or 3 minute coherent conversations with my dad the last few months. But I made the effort to have them. We didn’t have a very close relationship but I thought that was important
And yes. He is certainly in heaven. Probably still witnessing and performing Discount Double Checks!!
