Ten Years and Eleven Months Ago I Lost Dad




Ten years and eleven months ago I lost my dad to dementia.
He got worse off as the days went on for  him.
Unable to care for himself any longer Social Services was called.
Joslyn came to help Dad and to provide for him a place to be.
It was at this time I had to move from our home to be with him.
Dad succumbed and was buried next to Mom.
In Gethsemane is where the two are today as far as their bodies.
But they are very much in Heaven today and most happy to be there.
I  hope you will look for me being Heavenward as well.
I have put my faith and hope in Jesus and forever will I be with the Lord.
Daddy gave himself to us many times over to help us.
He will always be remembered appropriately for what he did.
