Another Angel Got His Wings

Another angel got his wings on Friday, Dec. 9th, 2011.  This is the day that my Daddy was welcomed into the gates of Heaven.  My Mother and I were by his side in their home, when God called him home. He was 77. Daddy went peacefully in his sleep.  No more battling cancer, no more sickness...just pure joy of being healed and walking with our LORD.

I love this photo. We were on vacation. Daddy in his shorts & socks with loafers~

Summer of 1971 in Panama City, FL~Daddy did not like the beach, but took Mom & I because he knew that I loved to play in the waves & sand!

                                                                

Dad knew how to laugh!  From a young man to a grandfather.  Although we called him "grumpy" often, he still knew how to laugh out loud!

         

He served his country in the Army as a Ranger.

So to all of my blog friends, say a little prayer for my Mother, Brother and myself as we learn to live without our Father...he will be missed, yet I feel vast comfort knowing he is in Heaven with our Lord & all those love ones that went before him.  I am a Daddy's girl...even at 46 years old...

CHERISH EACH MOMENT WITH YOUR PARENTS!
