Dad passed away today

Hi everyone,

I have this evening had a phone call from my sister in Canada to say Dad passed away this morning. He had a really good day on Sunday but went downhill very rapidly today. I feel in one sense glad he is no longer suffering the pain of the cancer in his bones but also very sad that I never really got to know him as much as I would have liked and that I will never be able to talk tim again. We only met each other for the months holiday when we went to stay with him 23 years ago. I am also very proud to be his son.

My sister sounded very upset and said she will miss him very much. It's hard for me not being there to support my brothers and sisters, Brian.

  • Hello Brian,

    The last few weeks have been so tough for you and Mrs B. We are thinking of you in this difficult time and are sad to hear your dad has passed away. He certainly seemed to be a very strong character and even though you didn't get to see him much, I know you often talked about him and he was often in your thoughts.
