Dad made his passage to the next life at 1:18 am this morning, with Mom, Katy & Jeff & I present. It was a peaceful, awe-inspiring time. His breaths became shorter and less pronounced, in the way that the lapping waves on the shore – after the wake of a passing ship – become less pronounced and then fade entirely. His ship is now creating a wake in other waters.
