BTS's Father died today

Kenneth Rhoads died today at the age of 78. Robert was in California. Kenneth's kids went out to lunch while Pops took a nap and when then got back he was dead. I am so very glad Robert got to spend the last few days of his Father's life with him. Robert told me that he didn't have anything to reconcile with his Pops - he just wanted to be there. I'm glad he was. It was fast - within 3 weeks of being really sick.

It's rarely easy for those left when someone goes, however right the moment is for them. I'm sure there's a lot of people here who'll be thinking of you all.
