Hello everyone. Dad passed away today at 10:32 AM. We were all dreading this day and this blog post, but in the end, it was something that we all were praying for. He was a strong man and fought the GREAT fight. He was in complete peace and pain free the last couple of days. We were all by his side at the end holding his hand and giving him all of our love. He is now in complete bliss with his mom and dad and yes, even Brute the old family dog. We've already started joking that he's working with Mom's dad "Homer" on that AWEFUL thing he called a golf swing. Thanks so much to all of you and your support. It's been overwhelming the love and support we have had from so many people and I'm sure it will continue now more than ever. We will keep everyone posted on the memorial service. We know that it will take place at the Hudson Chapel in Ohio some time next week.
