Tuesday evening my Dad Lee McWilliams went home to heaven after 89 years on this earth. It was a rainy day, but as we left the hospice house, the rain stopped and the sky cleared. We saw this rainbow, the sign of God's promises to us, with the end right on Dad's room. He is the one who got me interested in gardening, taught me fishing, took me to church and was the best dad for my 64 years. We know that he is OK now. 66 years ago he witnessed the depth of hate and destruction; 7 nuclear bomb blasts in Nevada. He got a huge dose of radiation when he was 2000 meters away from a Hiroshima size bomb in a concrete bunker. Most of the people he served with died of cancer within 20 years, but God had something else planned for him. Now he is enjoying the best, being in the presence of God.
