It's wonderful that you were there with him. May he find peace now, and you and your family. Take care, Kris.

I’m so sorry Kris. It’s hard. My Mom passed in 2017 and it’s just hard. But, with some time, it will get easier.

Kris, I'm so sorry. Your Dad was a great guy, we know that because of the time you've taken to let us get to know him. This picture says so, so much. You were blessed with a great Dad, and we know he is resting in peace. |

Thank you, all.
My Dad loved campfires, fireplace fires, etc
As I’ve posted previously on Caring Bridge, he valued fire for the practical reasons and the comfort of it, but also the symbolism in that energy from the sun is converted into the wood in a tree, that eventually falls and when burned the matter returns to energy.
Just like Einstein’s equation and the concept of the conservation of energy, energy can never be lost, it resides within matter until at some point it is converted back to energy and the cycle continues.
The energy that was my Dad has now left the material body it rode around in for 80 years and his energy has gone on to another realm, but it was not extinguished.
And those who loved him will always be warmed by the energy of fond memories.

Well put Kris. You gave him as good a send off as there could be.

It shall happen to us all. One can only hope that it happens to us as gracefully as you accompanied your father's exit, Kris.
