Freeper Prayer request for my father, A.L. Head (Jeff's father has passed away)
Self | Jan 24, 2004 | Jeff Head

Posted on 01/24/2004 2:22:05 PM PST by Jeff Head

Many of you know of my father. He is a combat vet of World War II of the Pacific Theater of Operations (PTO). Fomr time to time I have posted his articles have here on FR in the past and there have been several prayer threads for him due to his heart conditions, where the faith of others on his behalf, coupled with his own faith and the will of a loving Heavenly Father and the mercy of His son Jesus Christ, have worked miraculously on his behalf.

Now, he has suffered another heart attack...his kidneys are failing...his lungs are filling with fluid and fluid is collecting around his heart.

I was just called in the last hour by two of my brothers indicating I need to come immediately...that he may not survive the night.

So, myself and my family (wife and two boys at home) are heading down there now.

I will not be able to check this thread for potentially several days, but request your prayers on behalf of my father nonetheless.

I will call a couple of FReepers over the next couple of days and update them who can then update this thread.

I have faith in God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ and in their will...whatever that may be. We of course pray and hope he is preserved yet again...but also know that if the Lord chooses to bring him home it is because he has a greater work for him there...and will then look forward to that day, in the bye and bye, when we are united again in the love and bosom of our Savior.

Thanks in advance...please also remember my terminally ill brother and my elderly mother in your prayers, who herself is not in good health and who is being emotuionally effected by this as you can imagine.

I thank you all my FReeper and American and liberty loving friend everywhere.

Sincerely,

Jeff

Can you pass on to all that I just received a cell call from Jeff as he and his family were passing through Salt Lake . He received word that his father passed away just a few minutes ago. Jeff learned this from a call from his brother. He wanted to me to relate to all ...

Thank all for their prayers and please continue to pray for his Mother and Members of his family.........

Jeff is a good friend and I pray that his heartache is short and his fond memories of his Father are forever.

Lord be kind to Jeff and his Family !

Please Father, place your healing hands on Jeff's father. Guide his doctors in making the correct decisions. Also, Father, please watch over Jeff and his family as they are on the road. Bless and comfort them during this time. We ask this in Jesus Name, Amen

Jeff, my prayers for you and your family. My greatest respect to your Dad - I think that one measure of a successful life is children who have to look up at their parents and say, yes, I have to live up to that.

I'm sorry, Jeff.

I lost my WW II vet dad recently and I was comforted by how proud I was to be his son.

God Bless.
