My Dad's Passing

I guess there is no great way to let everyone know our sad news ... my Daddy passed away at about 9:40 last night. Mom, Jeff and I were with him as he passed peacefully. We feel blessed to have had him with us as long as possible. Thursday night was very special as our entire family gathered together. Dad was surrounded by mom, Jeff, Jennifer, Maxwell, Baby Annah, Mark, Nora, Uncle David, and me. All of the grand kids were there and he was able to smile when he saw them and even give them kisses. It was something special that we will never forget.

We've scheduled the Memorial Service for next Saturday morning due to the threat of Hurricane Gustav hitting the Alabama coast.

Thank you for your love, support, prayers, calls, emails and kind words. We feel blessed to be surrounded by such amazing family and friends.
