My condolences on your loss. Your Dad's pictures indicate he lived a good life. I would imagine that he is in his new spirit body that will not fail him and that he is in Heaven and that they already threw a party for him.
You will remain in my prayers and I will say one more for your Dad. Bob Blaze

Dear Father, please hold Wilburn in Your loving arms where he will remain for all of eternity, pain-free and in peace. Please give strength and support to those he left behind who will mourn his passing until they are reunited in Your House, forever. We ask these favors as Your humble and contrite servants in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
I wanted to share a photo of my Dad who also served as a sailor in WWII.

I was struck by the fresh-faced similarity of the two men.

I am so sorry to hear the news. My prayers are with you and your family.
Yesterday was the 2 month anniversary of my daddy's passing. I go his gravesite often to talk to him. I know his soul is in Heaven, as is your dear dad's, but it makes me feel closer to him.
I'm glad that Hospice was able come in, they are indeed angels.
Again, my prayers are with you and yours during this very difficult time.

Sorrry to here about that Flyer but in another sence I am not. You see that is what I prayed for that Sunday. I asked god to Either let himlive or to take him without pain. I specifically ask him to take Wilburn in his sleep. After watching my father die in pain I believe it is always the best way to go. Peacefully.....
I like thinking of Forest Gumps attitude on death at this time. He didn't really die per say He "made the trip up to heaven." It is a much better way to look at it. What do you think.

His shipmates are welcoming him aboard. God bless him and the family he leaves behind.
When my father passed away in March, God told me as I listened to the lonely trumpet play taps that that will not be the last trumpet he will hear. The next trumpet will be the mighty trumpet of the resurrection when his spirit will join his new ressurected body and the lord calls all his people home. What a joyous reunion you will have with your Father on that day, and me with mine.
God Bless.
