He was at Stein Hospice in Firelands Hospital in Sandusky, Ohio.
Cordell laid on his bed with him for the last two days, not even getting up when I would get up from my chair. He knew, and wanted Dad to have that comfort.
While we were there, my husband got a voice mail message from his employer here in Indiana, stating that while he understood about family and such things, his business was lacking, so he needed to lay him off. (Wasn't that nice of him?)
Anyhoo~ I have been working boatloads of overtime trying to get caught up on bills and such, and I think I have finally made a dent! Thank You, God!
We have the pool up, haven't added shock to it yet, or had the pump running (like adorame), but these silly children of mine have climbed in! LOL! I don't mind, but these old bones of mine are to apt to get cold! LOL!
DD#2 is ready to pop any day with grandchild (due June 25th they say) and DD#3 will be ready August 4th in Colorado. We want to go, but just don't see how it will be possible. Gas is rediculous around here! (Well, everywhere, I imagine.)
And before I write a book, I will go.
Hope someone comes back before too long!

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your Father. Please accept my sincere condolences. It's wonderful that you were able to spend time w/ him and say your good-byes. It's so sweet that Cordell was so faithful and had such good intuition.
What a horrible thing your husband's employer did! Grrrr! Want me to go knock some sense into them?
I hope things work out for the best. You know the old saying, When God closes a window, he opens a door. I hope that holds true here.
Congrats on the babies
I hope everyone will be very healthy!
