If your dad was anything like you, I'm sure you guys had alot of fun times together. Memories are what makes a life....think of all the good times and funny moments you shared and take solace in knowing he's in a much better place. Of course you'll miss him, but try to be strong for the rest of your family.
Not long ago someone in this forum posted a great poem about a person passing on, but I can't remember who. The poem was titled "I'm Free" and the last paragraph says...
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief.
Don't lengthen it with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me.
At last I'm free, be glad for me...
Best wishes in your time of sorrow.....

BTJ-
I am sorry to hear of the passing of your father. My mother passed in early Jan. and you helped me with a post. It is the probably the hardest thing to get over with the passing of a parent. It takes time but believe me it does get somewhat better. The ache of the loss lessens and you tend to remember the good times.
Again sorry for the loss
just cover

I'm sorry Jim I will say a prayer tonight and tomorrow in church for you. Remember the good times and know your father is probably smiling looking down from above.
My condolences.Don't think it's a manly thing not to cry. Let it all hang out. Holiday's will be rough but U never forget. Look up the prayer " Foot Prints " U'll get the drift
God Bless
