Death

So today a little before 2pm Pats cousin passed away. This man was very close to Pat, this is the man that tought him how to hunt and fish. They spent a lot of time in the outdoors together camping and hunting and fishing. I feel so bad for Pat, we were trying so hard to leave and get over to Idaho in time to see Dan before the good Lord took him home. But we could not make it. So now we are waiting to hear when the service is going to be so that we can make it over for that. Pat is having a really hard time dealing with this right now. And in a way he said that he is glad that we did no make it over there to see Dan before he passed, he did not really want to see him like that. He wanted to remember him the way he was. Happy, tall, strong. The way he was when they were hunting or campin together. I'm so glad that back in May and July that we were able to make it over there to see him and spend time with him. And that Dan was able to play with Ross and Peyton and get to know them a little. We will make sure that Ross and Peyton know about the important roll Dan played in their fathers life. Dan helped shaped the man that Pat is today, and for that I thank him. Dan you will never beforgotten, always remembered no matter what. We love and miss you. We know that you are with out Father in heaven now, with our Maker. We now that you are no longer in pain, the cancer is gone. You have two eyes that you can now see out of. Everyting is just fine now. We will see you again someday, I know that you will have open arms waiting for us when we too come home to our Father.
