My father's struggle with cancer ended late this morning. He passed away quietly and comfortably - with myself, my brother, my mother and our pastor all in the hospice with him.

While a few mere words could never do the man who I was blessed to be able to call "Dad" justice, I wrote the post linked below a few years ago - and it offers some tiny glimpse into what kind of man he was.

Be at peace Dad, I'm going to miss you.
