My uncle. In his 90s. True patriot, salt o' the earth kind of guy. Helps his neighbors and anyone he'd meet. Led his county's volunteer sheriff, then town's police dept and fire dept for many years. Like a 2nd father to me. Never in the hospital his whole life until this month. Fall --> broken hip --> hospital--> rehab --> home --> fell again. Some anesthesia --> some forgetfulness /dementia --> now hospital wants to send him to hospice (?!), but say he's too fragile for the move and say he has little time left. Family gathering in hospital, your added prayers will be much appreciated. Thank you.

Edit: He passed this evening, in peace and surrounded by loved ones, a blessing in itself. Thank you all for your prayers.
