(From Sara): Dad arrived at Cottage in the Meadow yesterday (Monday) just before noon. This hospice facility is so restful and beautiful. He has a large, private room (#103), with plenty of room for people to come and visit. There are also several comfortable common areas to sit and visit. Yesterday afternoon, he received many visitors…brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews, pastors, and dear friends. He was able to recognize and speak to them, although he usually had to be woken up to do so.

But today…(from Judy): I am feeling that my sweet hubby is on the doorstep of Glory.  His condition has greatly declined since yesterday.  He is sleeping and unresponsive, but I think he knows I am here.  I have not been alone this morning.  My kids and family are here.  I am surrounded by love and support.  The Lord is near.  We are not afraid.

(From Sara): Visitors are welcome. Dad may not be able to talk to you, but the rest of us certainly can and will! Your love and prayers are such an encouragement to us.
