With a very heavy heart and with grateful pain. My Dad passed away Monday morning with Lori and I by his side. He lost the cancer battle. It has been a great summer and spring . We had a lot of good times and I spent pretty much every day with him and Lori to. He was doing so well until Sept 8th when my wife rushed in to the er in fargo where he was diagnosed with Pneumocytosis, caused by have no immune system. He was in the hospital from Sept 8 to Oct 2. Thank you everyone the have kept him in your thoughts and prayers,  I got the most beautiful 10 Months with him, it was way to short. He never complained about pain or was depressed about his cancer and never questioned God why him. He was so positive about it all. All he said is that you can't give up and away think positive and fight. I have never seen defeat in my dad's eyes tell friday when he couldn't breathe or do anything with out no being able to catch his breath. And he told me that he could do it anymore that it won and beat him. God rest is beautiful soal . Rest in peace dad.
