Sorry to hear to your loss, Joe.

It sounds like my father some years ago.  He survived the congestive heart failure and stroke but ended up spending the last few years in a nursing home and ultimately not recognizing much of anyone.

May you remember with comfort the legacy of your dad.

My dad is gone too and it was a sad time but I have faith I will see him again some day. He just went somewhere we can't go yet. This is not all there is. Wishing you and yours peace and comfort during this trying time.
