Goodbyes are hard

My Dad passed away early friday morning, July 11 2008, just past midnight.

I walked outside on the porch and looked at the red moon deep on the horizon, setting.
He had been unconscious for about a week before he passed away, we tried to give him the comfort he deserved.

For a few days it seemed like he knew I was there. I had been staying up to watch him if he woke up, I was listening and watching. Finally I became too exhausted and I had to sleep. It was like he was waiting for me to leave the room so he could finally pass away. Sad that thought.

It does seem like I never got to say goodbye.

Goodbye, Dad.
