The PC I'm using only gave me the audio - wish I could see the images. But I am very glad this made the news.

What a dad, what a family - that we all would have such a sense of responsibility - this would be a much better world.
May God Bless the family of this wonderful man!

Thank you for sharing. Your father has set a fine example and it appears on the tape that he is the patriarch of a fine family...Lord keep you and your family unto Him.

Texasflower, let me just say that this has been one of, if not THE MOST MOVING story on FreeRepublic since I became a member in 2000.My prayers, and heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. I am so glad that Jesus was your dad's Savior and Lord, and that he is in the very presence of God now! I am in tears as I type this. I will be 63 in a week. I would have to agree that it would have been my passion to vote too.....what newspaper was this article in? I will save the photos and send them on to my lists in hopes of encouraging others to vote!!

Now I am weeping openly.I just viewed that video!!!!!!
...I hope the President sees this and DOES SHOW UP at your home!!! Wonder how we could get the video to the PREZ??. This should be shown nationally. Has anyone showed it to Sean Hannity or Rush?
Hope you figured out how to save this to your harddrive too. Praying for you during this time of loss...

texasflower,
You mentioned that your dad requested " frito pie" for dinner. I used to fix that years ago, but have lost the recipe. You don't happen to have that , do you? If so could you freepmail it to me?
thanks,
Polly

I saw this on News8 today in Austin. An inspirational story of your dad's desire to vote. Prayers will continue for your family.

Hi everyone. This is the final post to my prayer request thread for my dad. It began in September and ended with my dad's death about a month later.
To remind everyone, my dad was determined to vote for President Bush during early voting the week before the election, despite being in the last days of his life. We took him by ambulance and he voted inside the ambulance with the help of an election official. The pictures are at post 173.
He went into a coma just hours after that and died a day later. Voting was very literally his last act of this earth.
Many of you mentioned that we should let President Bush know about my Dad's story.
It appears that some of you were busy (and wonderful) freepers. All of you were wonderful to pray for my dad and my family.
Someone ( or many of you ) went a bit further!
My mother has received a letter from President Bush AND a letter from FORMER President Bush!
I haven't seen the letters yet, but my mother says they both talk personally to my mom about my dad. (not form letter stuff)
I'll see the letters at Christmas. I didn't ask her many details about what they said, because I want to read them myself, just as if I opened the letters myself. Does that make sense?
They are a very great comfort to my mom, that's for sure.
The Bush family is just amazing, I think.
I just wanted to tell whoever you are, thank you for taking the time to let the President(s) know.
BTW, we celebrated the re-election pretty hard at our house on November 3rd. I'm sure that Dad was celebrating in heaven with Jesus and the angels!
Love to all!
