Medical Forum / General / Vision / October 2005Off topic but...
Forgive me as this is not the place but since I have a nice dialogue going here and there are people I can call my friends, I wanted to write... My father passed away last Sunday evening time in Turkey. I learnt about the news yesterday. I had not talked to him last 6 months and had not seen him last 6 years. He was not a Christian in the terms we know, I am sure things he had done in his life would be damning and he should be headed to hell in some people's eyes, however Lord has infinite mercy and grace, even my father got distracted most of his life towards different beliefs, maybe was not the best father out there, he loved his children. He sought God towards the end and he knew his two boys were Christians. He never resented this fact. Pray for him and I have hope that I will be seeing him one day. His name is Sadi. Lord's blessings to you all and may He end your sufferings whether physical or emotional.

I lost my father seven years ago and still think of him every day. We had our differences, but as the years since his passing have gone by, I remember more of the good times and few of the bad. Cherish your rememberances of the good times with your father, share them with your brother, tell your children his story. He lives on in the memories of those still living. Judy
