This prayer is a modified version of "A Prayer for Daddy," written by Trent Angers of Lafayette, La., at the time of the impending death of his father, Bob Angers Jr., in 1988. The original prayer was later published in the book by Camille Pavy Claibourne titled "Dying in God's Hands". The book is available from the publisher at www.acadianhouse.com/spirituality-enlightenment.
