Dad's birthday.

My Dad's 98th birthday is today. He died January 1, 2013.

He was a good sweet Dad. 

I celebrate him today. 

The photo below was taken in 2012. He was in ill health the entire year.

On this particular day one of my sisters had taken Mom to the doctor, thinking she may be having a heart attack. 

My Dad was so worried. He was afraid she would have a stay in the hospital. He was lost without her.

I was talking to him on FaceTime when Mom got home.

Two hundred and fifty miles away I could feel his relief when she walked in the room. 

They kissed and he just held her hand. 

She was his everything.

And he hers. 

I love you Dad. 

Shalom.
