Condolences to you and your family, Kendal. I'm sure he'll be greatly missed - but his love for you will live on in the words you write. This was a lovely tribute.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you all.
Prayers for you and your family.
ReplyDeletePrayers for you & your family at this time. I dread the day that I receive that news. You have been blessed with a dad that enriched your life. May memories bring you comfort & peace in the days ahead.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry about your father. Praying for you and your family. Asking the Lord to comfort you as only He can.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful words & a great tribute to your dad..so thankful for the opportunity to know him..love you guys!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful words about your dad. I am sorry for your loss, Kendall.
ReplyDeleteFondly,
Glenda
Kendal, I read about your loss via Jen Ferguson at Soli Deo Gloria. So very sorry for your loss. What great memories you have....
ReplyDeleteGrateful you could find these simple words to honor. Visiting from Laura's place.
ReplyDeleteOh Kendal, I hear you. My husband's mom just entered hospice, and it won't be long til she walks through heaven's gates. Praying for you, for yours ...
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry, Kendal. "Thank you" is plenty to honor someone so big you lack the words to describe. Love your way, sister.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry, Kendal. Prayers are with you. Losing a dad isn't easy, I know....
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry, friend. I wish I could swing by your place with a hot casserole and a hug. Your friendship in this place has been such a blessing to me and sometimes the walls of cyberspace are too thick to convey that with the feeling that is felt. So much love to you and your family. So much love.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if my comment "took" the first time around, friend, but just wanted to echo what Laura Boggess said. I wish I could show up on your doorstep, and wrap my arms around you in a big hug, and pray with you. I'm praying from afar. Much love to you.
ReplyDeleteOh, Kendal, my heart breaks for you. I said goodbye to my dad six years ago, so I know how difficult that goodbye can be. I pray that God will wrap his arms of comfort around you and your family during this time and will allow the good memories to sustain you.
ReplyDeleteHey Kendal! Just now reading this. Sorry to hear about your father, seems like he was a great man! Hope you are doing well, and praying for God's goodness in the midst of loss, knowing that his grace is sufficient even in our sadness.
