The man I call Dad quietly slipped through the veil with his family by his side this afternoon. What an amazing man of God he is. In Dad's words... What a Guy!
I love you Dad, I miss you, I will try to make you proud.

I am so sorry to hear this Alex. What a great guy he seems to be. It is so great to know that one day he will be by your side once again. My heart aches for you. My prayers will be with you and your family. Please let me know if I can do anything for you.
We are so sorry to hear that, Alex. You will of course make him proud. That's a pain I'm not looking forward to having to bear. Let us know if you need anything, even if it's just brownies. We're thinking about you guys.
Alex, no words can make up for the pain and grief you must be going through. I have been dreading reading your blog for I knew this post was coming. My heart aches with yours...I am so sorry. I know you made your dad SOO proud! You are an amazing individual and son. I want to call you...but I will wait. I am sure you will be busy the next few days. Please call me if you need anything, and I am so grateful you have such an amazing wife by your side. I will talk to you soon. You are in my prayers.
Alex,
You are an amazing person. You're so strong, and you will make your dad proud everyday. Especially when your sweet little boy gets here. You will be the great dad that he was to you. Isn't it great to have the gospel? What a comfort to know you'll be with him again. You and your family will be in our prayers.
Oh my word, I am so sorry! I don't even know what to say except we will keep you in our thoughts in prayers, and know we love you guys!
You're in our prayers as well. God bless...

Feel free to call if there is anything you need - i'm always here for you. When things like this happen, I am reminded of how lucky we are to have the knowledge of the plan of salvation.

We are so sad to hear about Alex's dad. He looked like a great father! Our prayers are with you!
Oh, wow you guys. I'm so sorry. I had no idea he was even in poor health. You guys are so great and so strong! We're praying for you and your family!!
Alex,
I am so sorry to hear about this. Know that I will be thinking + praying for you and your family at this hard time. I am so grateful for this gospel and for the knowledge that families are eternal. You will make your Dad proud everyday, I don't doubt that one bit.
Alex, I am so sorry to hear the news. Best of luck through the next few days. They are going to be rough, but remember you guys are in MANY peoples thoughts and prayers. Love you guys!
I am so sorry to hear this news. He was a great man. I know he had a strong testimony. I can't imagine the pain. You and your family will be in my prayers.
I am so sorry to hear this. How blessed we are to have the gospel to know we will one day be reunited with loved ones who have passed on! I am sure you will make your dad proud everyday...especially as you embark on fatherhood yourself! You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers
The way you talk about him, I'm sure he was a great man and will be missed by all who knew him. Let us know if there is anything we can do.
We are sorry to hear of your loss. We know that he is with a loving Heavenly Father now and he is watching over you both and your baby that is on the way.
Danelle, I am so sad to hear this. I have a crazy confession to make, There where many times I would spend very sad and missing my home. I would drive to the Bountiful Temple and then drive slowly home and would always find myself in front of that house looking at all the pieces in that tree. I again found myself in front of that home the day before I left Utah. I did not know him, but I appreciate the comfort his home gave me. A place in Utah I knew, a place I did not have to look for. He did tell an amazing story in those trees. My thought and prayer are with you.
Alex and Danelle- I am so sorry to hear about your dad. Isn't it awesome to know you will get to see him again someday? I hope your little baby is growing and healthy- Danelle please post some belly pics!
I'm so sorry to hear of your family's sorrow and aching hearts. May joy also be with you! I don't know very much about sorrow, but some... One of the difficult and sweetest thing about it is, remembering. I sincerely hope and pray that you all will not feel alone in your tears AND laughter, while recognizing the "visits" I'm sure are in your future.
