Description
Tonight, Dave---magnus 073---wrote me that his father, after a miraculous upsurge, fell gravely ill and passed away. I send my deepest sympathies to Dave and his family. It was a great loss.
Dave told me that, in that upsurge, he was able to sit with his father and have many moving hours with him. It was as if the skies opened and shined precious light on his father and on everyone he loved; I know how blessed that is, and I'm deeply grateful you had those precious moments with him.
I wish that you carry your father's light forever, Dave, and that his light comfort you. And---to paraphrase the Jewish prayer of mourning---may you and all your loved ones be magnified and sanctified in your father's great light. Much love and sympathy to you, and to all who share this deep and precious loss, Mark

Thank you Mark, for tell us how Dave could profit the loving hours with his father... Extremly beautiful and moving the words that you shared with us, about these unforgettable moments for them---you wrote that''it was as if the skies opened and shined precious light over them ...'' and i SEE and FEEL in this image that you drew, a deep understanding of those moments, translated into wonderful colours and light, like if a colourful wave, filled with love, was swirling and melding,falling from the skies!! Wonderful tribute for Dave and his Father, straight from your heart, Mark. As always! My condolences and deepest thoughts to Dave and his family in this moment of great loss. But Your father, Dave, always will be the most shining star in the sky, for YOU!

I know Dave by avatar only, but this is a wonderful, loving piece Mark. Dave, I lost my dad in 2007. He died at 99 but he and I shared everything during the last ten years of his life...there was not a stone left unturned. I am so glad you had time with your dad before he passed.

Beautiful image and dedication, Mark. It saddens me to no end, to read about this. A very heartfelt piece in light and colors. My deepest condolences to Dave and the family. Dave has always been a good friend, and supportive person in these galleries. It is good to see, that you, and so many others, spiritually support Dave and the family, in this difficult time for them.

Mark, let me first of all thank you so much for this touching and thoughtful dedication. My apologies for not responding to this dedication sooner, but I felt it best to wait until I was strong enough and my thoughts more clear. Your point about how much I treasured the time at the end with my Father was well made, and it is a time in my life that I'll never forget. My days are spent attempting to live in the shadows of someone who was larger than life. Even now after some time has passed just trying to express what is in my heart makes me tear up. This reminds me of what I told my Dad when we were alone in his office one day, some time before he was injured. He was trying to tell me that he might not be around for much longer, and how God had blessed him to have as good of health as he had. He expressed his desire that I take care of Mom, and wanted to make sure I was well provided for also. I responded by telling him that Mom would be my first concern and that in all honesty I would rather have him here with me than worry about being taken care of myself. I have to stop for now as it is getting hard to go on. Thanks again my Brother.
