Oh Dad,....For 53 years, you have not only been a Wonderful Father, but my best friend over anyone else in this entire world.
Your illness and death came so abruptly, without warning. But I am so thankful to God that you and I had some very tender moments during your last days here on earth.
I'm thankful to God for being able to hold your hand and speak to you as to exhaled your last breath of life. As you saw me take my first breath at birth, I witnessed your last in death.
I miss you so much these days, but I am comforted in knowing that you are now completely healed, and are forever with Jesus, and Mom. I know you've missed Mom so much since she went home to be with the Lord 4 years ago. But now,...the both of you are now "together forever", just as it is engraved on your and Mom's tombstone.
Dad,..you were always more concerned with the needs of others more than that of yourself. And I must say that I didn't truly realize just how much I really Loved you until those last few days that I had with you. Those precious dear moments when no one else was around.
I have to constantly remind myself that the trials and struggles in this life are now over for you, and that you are eternally at Peace, & Happiness through, and with our Lord Jesus.
And I try to always remember that "I will" see you, as well as Mom again, in that beautiful place where there shall be no more good-byes. I guess the toughest part right now is just,"missing you". I came out of a shallow sleep last night calling your name, as i had briefly forgotten that you weren't there,... in the next room anymore. I felt so much sadness as I walked to your room and you were gone unlike like so many times before.
Now that you have passed through this world into heaven, it helps me to understand more that God has work for me to do here 'for him' concerning those whom are lost.
Thank you Jesus for blessing me with such a wonderful, loving, and dedicated Dad.
Though he had a rough childhood himself, he never let that stop him from trying to do what was good and right. And thank you God, because it was your goodness that brought my Dad to except your Son Jesus as his Savior.
Jesus,...now that a part of my Mother, and my Father still reside in me, I humbly ask that you direct and guide me to do your will here on earth, for I cannot do it alone.
Dad,......I Love you eternally, and you've given me one more reason to come Home to Heaven, where you are now. I know you are fully at Peace, Joy, Security, and Love, and I shall meet you there soon to begin forever with you.
Until that day,...I pray that God will have mercy and give me the strength to carry on.
Thank you for Loving me Pa'
Your Only Son,
Kevin Humphrey
Kevin, I will miss one of my best friends. I don't know how I would have made it the last few years without Michael's help. He was always willing to do anything that needed to
be done. Loved him much. Keep looking up. Love you, Nikki and KJ. Lou
