Thank you all for the kind words of condolences and other messages I've received. I must also apologize I didn't mean to hijack the thread but thanks again.

I counseled my brothers and sister by saying to them -

"don't end up wishing you had called him yesterday"

I made that mistake almost 13 years ago. I didn't call my mother on Sunday evening like I usually did, then the next morning about 7 AM at work, I got a call that her medic alert bracelet had been activated. Trying to return the call to her house,all I got were either busy signals or ringing with no answers.I took a drive over to the house and my brother's brother in law got there at the same time. We went in, and I found her lyng crossways on her bed. She had been gone only about an hour. I never had that final call with her. You just never know. Things like that happen, you try to get back to normal, but nothing will really ever be just the same.
