Last night as I sat watching the dying embers in our fireplace it hit me that my Dads life is like this. When you think thwe fire is all gone something truly amazing happens and that flickering ember takes on a full flame as to say hey Im not done yet. Then it fades away again leaving you with hope for one last glimpse into that flame. We as a family know that flame is coming to to an end and also know thru Gods amazing grace Dad will forever be free one day soon. We thank God for giving us these rekindlings of that flame, one last time to say I love you Dad, Papa and Big paw. I know how painful it is in my heart to watch the only Daddy I have ever known fade away and can only imagine the pain my mother is going thru. I thank God that He choose my mother for my Dad 63 years ago. Her love and devotion to my Dad and to God is a truly amazing thing to watch. Her pain in knowing she is loosing her partner, her friend is not easy to watch. I wish everyone knew this kind of love. I dont always speak of my pride in my mom but this has to be said. Mom and I may not always agree but on this I do agree. She is the rock and strength of this family and I am thankful for her. I ask all friends and family to please keep her and us in your prayers as many difficult decisions will need to be made soon. A day none of us are looking forward to. I pray for strength to let go and let God work his wonders in the way only He can. I pray for peace for my Dad. thanks to everyone for the love and prayers shown to my Mom and Dad. Patsy/ Tricia Sellars Duvall and Family.
