My beloved, cherished DrO passed from my arms into our Lord and Savior’s this morning at the exact time I was born 68 years ago. I got my birthday wish that he passed in complete peace on this date without any pain and without gasping for breath and right after I had recited our Lord’s Prayer and told him it was all right for him to leave me now that I would be strong and carry on like he wants me to. Everyone else had left the room and I know he waited for that.

Thank you all for your love and support and your continuous faithful prayers. One of Walt’s last statements was that “It’s all in God’s hands” and God truly came magnificently through like only He can do.

Yes, I’m brokenhearted and so very sad, but I got everything at the end that I prayed for. God’s Amazing Grace. I’ll be a better person now. I made that promise to God, so it’s one I have to keep. I hope you all will help me keep it.

I love you all.

penelopesire is here with me and I’m so grateful and thankful. I love her and so did Walt.

God Bless and keep you all.

I am so sorry for your loss. I ask our Lord to hold you and your family in the palm of His hand, and comfort you all.

We will see you on the other side DrO.

I am so sorry for your loss. Will continue to pray for you and your family and friends. Knowing he is with the Lord is of comfort, but I know you will miss having him near.

Sending you love and prayers.

I appreciate you taking the time in the midst of your loss to update us, who have been praying for you and your beloved husband. I am praising the Lord with you that He is and has been answering all our prayers for you both. There is something quite awesome that happens when Christians lose a loved one...it is that we truly do not sorrow even as others who have no hope. You KNOW that you will see each other again in God's perfect dwelling place and you will have eternity to praise His wonderful name together. Though you must deal with your loss in the here and now, rest in the knowledge that joy comes in the morning. Please know that you have many, many people who care deeply for you, are praying for your comfort and consolation and who will be there for you whenever you need us.

My condolences, I’ve been through it too, I lost my mother 6 months ago this coming Sunday. I’ve been reading this off and on because I have limited internet access and time, but my prayers and thoughts go out to you and yours.

[sissyjane]

I’m so, so, so sorry dear Onyx. I haven’t commented here very much in years, but want you to know that you have been and will remain in my prayers!

[re_nortex]

God Bless you, onyx. And know with absolute certainty that He indeed will.

[Col Freeper]

Sadness and Joy.

Sad that you must temporarily lose Dr.O because he went home to our Father.

Joyful because he is not one of the forever lost, and is waiting for you by the Lord's side.

Joyful because you know that when the Lord has completed His plan for you on this earth, you will also be by his side.

Sadness and Joy.

I am so sorry for your loss T. Please accept my deepest condolences and know that I am thinking about you. To pass peacefully is the best we could hope for when we leave this life. I wish you peace in dealing with this change. You have lots of friends, I know. But know that I am here should you need to talk.

So very sorry, Onyx. May Walt rest in peace.

[CatherineofAragon]

Oh, onyx. I’ve had no internet service and I’m just seeing this, and I’m crying. I’m so, so sorry, honey. I wish I could be there and hug you.

Praise God for His grace. I know YOU know that DrO is with Jesus right at this very moment, and that he is seeing wonders that we can only imagine. His pain is gone and his body is perfect. And the separation will be only temporary.....you’ll see him again. Thank God for that.

In the days to come, pour out your heart to Jesus...He’ll get you through.

Love you
