A Difficult Time

My beloved Grandpa Rosiak was taken to the hospital this morning and it looks like this is the end. Grandpa turned 94 years old this April and has been in steadily failing health. My mom and dad said that our family has decided (in accordance with his wishes) not to use any artificial means to prolong his life. He is currently resting in the hospital and is not in any pain with some sedative medication. They expect his passing to be peaceful and pain-free. Your thoughts and prayers for our family and for Grandpa's passing would be very much appreciated.
