Day 61: Comforted Family

I apologize for this going up so late. I am going to keep it relatively short. My random act for today is one that I wish I didn't have to do...be there to comfort and care for my wife and her family. Sadly, yesterday, her father passed away after a bout with cancer. John will be remembered as one of the most kind, caring, and compassionate men the world has ever seen. He was always someone who put others before himself and because of that, John will continue to be an inspiration for my random acts. We love him and will miss him dearly.

    It is always so hard to lose loved ones. Being there for your wife is one of the best gifts you will ever give her.
