Your dad surely meant a lot to me. Everytime I saw him he had a smile & always something good to say. Never was he negative about anything. It hurt me at first when I heard of his passing, but I had to think positive about it afterwards because through it all we as a people will see him again. We as people can't be selfish of wanting our love ones for a lifetime, but always know that God is always IN TIME & ON TIME. Sister Eleanor I admire you & your family but especially you for being there for your dad & your mom all the way until there last breath. Weeping may endure for a night, but JOY will come in the morning. You will see your dad & mom again. I love you guys but always know God loves us all the best...stay blessed....
