Hospice ended this morning at 3:30 AM when Papa went home to his Father. The few hours our family shared were beautiful, and while the pain of losing him is vast- I also feel anticipation for the day when we will be reunited and I too will meet our Abba, our father.
Until then Papa, I will miss you.
Peace and much love.

I love you Jess. Take care of yourself. Feel bad as long as you need to, don't answer phone messages or e-mails as long as you need to, but be sure that a lot of people are praying for you and your family.
love Rob
Jessica - I am weeping for you and your family as I write this. It's Rob's sister Deb, and I still think of you as a wonderful friend from TWU.
I pray that God will give you strength as you walk down this path, that he will give you patience as you encounter people who don't know how to deal with a young person grieving, that he will give you the comfort that only he can, and that you will daily find peace - even in the sadness. I will tell you that I still miss my mom a lot - but that the day to day pain is less as time goes on. You will be in our family's thoughts and prayers over the next while. I wish I could give you a hug. My mom and your dad are now praising God in ways that we can't even imagine. But that doesn't mean I don't wish she was around to talk to from time to time.
I still live in Langley - if you want to connect - let Rob know and he can pass along my e-mail.
I heard about your papa on Rob's blog. Much feelings of love and prayers for you and your family.
