God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you
and whispered, "Come to me."
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
and saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly
we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating
hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.

On March 25, 2008 my father lost his brave struggle with cancer.

On behalf of our family, my thanks to all of you for your thoughts, prayers, and emotional support.

Following in our tradition of 40 days of mourning, this gallery will remain dark until May 5th.

Eric, I didn't know your dad but judging by the type of guy you are I am sure he was an amazing individual. I too lost someone near and dear to me not too far back and the wonderful memories I have of her continue to put a smile on my face everyday. I am positive you made your dad proud and he will continue to watch over you and guide you until you meet again. My heart goes out to you and your family during this most difficult time. Just keep making him proud Eric and rest assured that he's still by your side. Sincerely,

Kirk Dilbeck (3-Wishes and Patron-of-art) Member Since 2006

Your sincere dedication is beyond special. Speaking with you about your father was valued and knowing the love you have for your family only shows how unique you are as a kind open hearted person my friend. Know that your father will live on in you and all that you touch. He is proud of you, I know. I know or the fact that I am honored to know the light that you shine on so many. I salute you, and the man that birthed one of a kind.

Finally found this 'in memoriam' thread and I wanted to add my thoughts. My condolences, Eric. I haven't yet had to endure the loss of a parent, but I would imagine the experience to be one full of strife. I hope you are by now on the mend.
