Perry, I loved your commentaries! I thought they were very insightful and spot-on! Often when people write in commentaries, it's stuff I've already thought of and realized but in this case you brought stuff to my attention I wouldn't have noticed, or at least wouldn't have noticed with such clarity! Thanks!

Here's another quote that stood out to me:

"Just an hour before Dad went to be with the Lord, even when some of our staff here knew how serious things were, quite a few of them received similar indications that Dad would be raised up and healed."

Wait a second! Didn't the Family's official announcement say he passed away peacefully in his sleep? So he was sleeping and they knew he was super-sick? Or was he super-sick and fell asleep or into a coma? All these years I've been suspicious of such a monster as Berg just peacefully dying in his sleep. They made it sound as if he went to sleep one night and Maria woke up in the morning and there was a corpse beside her. Yet these new details seem to undermine that. What really happened, I wonder? Does anyone know?
