My dad was the most patient man I've ever known. He raised three daughters with patience and love. He took us to church, prayed with us and for us, he would have done anything for us if we asked. He used to wake us up at 5 am for morning devotions and prayer, before he would go to work. He loved my mom very much and took care of her so well. The love and prayers we have felt the last few days is amazing. So many wonderful words said about my dad.
Jolena i'm so sorry this is so shocking
