Carol,

Several years ago Gradon and I had short duration private message as I recall I found him to be a true gentleman and someone that I would love to know.
I just now prayed for him as others here have done for me and asked that God's Will be done.

And I prayed for you Carol as you all are in this just the same and need the same guidance and care.

I too will remember Graydon in my prayers.....we really have become a family here and stuff like this touches everyone.

I wish him the best. I have been pulling for him to hit 100 but maybe
it's not to be.
He has always spoken fondly of you and his grandson.

Your father is a shining example of what’s right with this country, and I have no doubt that his impact and legacy will carry on for generations from now. I don’t post often, but I’m here reading often enough to know that your dads posts are worth hitting the pause button on life, and taking the time to read deliberately, and learn from. Thank you for sharing him with us all of these years, and please tell him that I’ll be looking forward to meeting him in person in heaven. God bless you Graydon and family, in Jesus’ name.

Carol, thank you for taking the time and trouble to post that. My father passed away last June at 98 while in hospice. Im glad your father is well cared for, I hope you are getting help as being a caretaker was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done. Bless you both.
Regards,

Thank you for letting us know. I have corresponded with your Dad a few times. He was supportive when my wife passed last August. I am sure she will be glad to meet him.
He was a great guy.
I hope his journey is smooth. And I will keep him in my prayers.

Carol, again thanks for sharing his condition with us.. As you are probably well aware, your father is a true treasure... he is among a select few that are cherished for their intelligence, humor, insight and wisdom. I have and will be praying for Graydon along with all his family and friends. Tell him he is a friend.

He was truly one of the Greatest Generation.

...have cherished his stories of his WWII duties in the Navy..

As a relative newcomer to this forum, I managed to miss the opportunities to read about that...I've written books about my uncle's WWII Naval service, and would have liked to read about Graydon's......Ben

I am sorry for your impending loss. I believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience; and move on to another experience. I hope your father’s transition is painless and his journey is awesome. May your family find peace and comfort during this difficult time.
