I talked to him while he was still hooked up to the equipment.
He said he'd like to stick around but he was so ready to go.
His confidence was secure in the Lord.
He walked the talk.
I was shocked by the turn of events but rejoice that his absence from the body is PRESENCE with the Lord."

I find some comfort in knowing he was prepared and ready and faced this end of life with strength and a peaceful mind >
Obituary
My dad said to me, to all of us, "It's time for me to go... I want to go." That seemed so right AND so odd to me, I was 36 and could not imagine being "ready to go". It occured to me - we all cried when Dad died, all of us, except for him.

That DID help me. A lot. And this quote above helps, too.
