Thank you for sharing this difficult day with us. It's never a smooth or easy path when saying goodbye to a parent. Deep breath...forward with grace.

Very sorry. Nice that you were there though, and that he was well loved and cared for...getting his favorite foods and so on. No matter how good their lives were or how old they were it's missing having them with us that is hard. Bet there are many wonderful Christmas memories... maybe write them down while you are young.

Went through that back in April when my Mom passed. They say weddings and funerals is when you catch up with old family.
