Both sons are there with their dad now...

and we will soon go to bed and wait for the call...

John 14:2

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

Closer...

Ray and Jackie stayed a couple of hours...another pastor and his wife stopped in...but other than that...Steve and his dad have shared today together...he was going to come home tonight...but Harold is rattling now...no gag reflex when they suctioned him...Steve is going to the cafeteria to grab supper...and then hole up again for the night...I told him to stay...he's trying to give him back all the hours he gave to him...fishing...camping...just hanging out...the Lord will soon take the father home...but He'll have both arms wrapped around this son...

Blood pressure dropped...

but he is still lingering...Steve's brother and niece are there this morning...Steve and I talked earlier about him coming home at night...he said a little bit ago he thinks he will start doing that and only going up during the day...everything on this side is done...it all has to come from the other side now...Steve doesn't want him to die alone...I told him he won't...just because he can't see them doesn't mean the whole room isn't full...he won't be alone...no one ever dies alone...only the other side can give him comfort now...we can only hold his hand...but they can touch his soul...and they are there...waiting...just like we are...

Nothing yet...peaceful night...
