Ted:
My mother-in-law who was 88 and a WW II Vet died here about 3 weeks ago. My wife had relocated her here about 5 weeks ago as she could no longer care for herself and the rest of the family was located here.
She did ok for a few weeks and spent the last few days in a hospice surrounded by us,her grandaughter and 4 great grand children with a "do not resusitate" order and died peacefully in her sleep.
I suspect it's the way she wanted to go as well as it was your fathers choice.
