It is with sad hearts that we bring you the news that Dad passed away this AM from heart failure.  Mom, Krystal, Kaidance and I were fortunate to be with him in the hospital for his final moments of life this morning.  Friday afternoon dad called me to notify me he wasn't feeling good and I promptly came over to find that he had already called for an ambulance to come.  I was able to spend time with him in his house before they took him off to the hospital where he went into cardiac arrest from 100% blockage in his right artery.  From there he spent time in the ICU where Krystal, Mom and I could visit him.  Mom spent most of his last full day by his side.  He was responsive to us all and knew we were there.  Dads sister Debbie was fortunate to have spent time with dad Friday morning when he requested she come over.  Today we will be together as a family.

What a great Sunday service dad is at right now.  Thanks so much for all your love and prayers through these last weeks of his journey, His is experiencing more peace than he has ever known and we are truly grateful for it.
