Time Together

As my dad would often say- value the time you have with each other-
you don’t know when it will be the last time.

The last phone call.
The last dinner together.
The last beer out with friends.
The last walk through the park holding hands.
The last time you play together on the street, the court, the field.
We never know what the future holds for ourselves, and for those who we hold close to our hearts.

This is Anthony, Pete’s son.
Dad is in Comfort Care, per his own request, with multiple organ failure.
His children are by his side. We have all prayed together. He has been blessed.
We talk to him, sometimes he moves his hands, a flicker of a smile, or peaceful snoring.

He will soon walk again in peace with his wife, Terry.
But he is still with us as we say our goodbyes.
Join us in prayer, in whatever faith you follow, for a smooth transition.

And think of those times we did spend together, enjoying each others company.
