Prayers for peace knowing that you fought very hard for your dad. Actually, harder than anyone I have ever known. He must have been a very special father to have such a faithful daughter. I pray that you realize all that you did for your dad, Brooke. As time passes, I pray that all you will remember about these last few years is the time spent together, and not the pain. Hugs to you, my friend! Prayers for you, Will and the girls!
Sincerely,
Darlene Howard
