Dad has passed on

Journal entry by Jennifer Engman - 5 hours ago

All,
I guess in the mayhem of everything going on, I should have probably 
considered updating this sooner. Especially since our last entry is over two 
years
old. Dad had been on the decline since May 2016 although had not gotten 
really ill until September in which he was begged to go to the emergency 
room for
treatment. It would seem that his left lung decided to act up once again. 
This was the lung that was completely collapsed upon his cancer diagnosis in
2012. Subsequently, there were multiple ER visits including a trip to the 
ICU in October. In November, he made the difficult decision to stop his 
medication
and passed away peacefully on December 10th at 5:08pm. Please see his 
obituary at

 and his guestbook at
http://www.legacy.com/guestbooks/sptimes/james-gerald-ellsworth-condolences/183254056?cid=full
We would like to thank you all so much for the support and words of 
encouragement over the years. There is no doubt in my mind that dad is home 
with Jesus
and he is no longer in pain and able to watch over all of us. He wouldn't 
have wanted it any other way.
Love to all of you,
Jennifer
