HFSSC, I am so very sorry. There is absolutely nothing as beautiful as the love between a father and a daughter. I was a Daddy's girl. He's been gone since I was 16 and I still miss him. He taught me so much in a short time. I'm so glad you had a great relationship with him. In the years to come, that will be so precious to you.

So sorry, HFSSC and Hellfire. Loss of a parent is tough. I never had the opportunity to meet my dad. I lost my mom 6 years ago.

I asked my uncle how he dealt with the loss of his mom (my grandmother), and he said that you just learn to live with the loss.

Just saw this.

I’m so sorry for this pain for him and all of you.

I lost my daddy 13 years ago. He was also an amazing dad like you have described yours. I think of him every day.

Just so you know, there will come a day when your thoughts of him will bring a smile to your face, rather than a tear in your eyes and in your heart.

You’re right. It’s going to be OK. And you have been blessed to have had him in your life.

We had a quiet family service at the funeral home tonight with just our mom, spouses, children and grandchildren. He is being cremated but we needed the closure of visiting together with him one last time. The funeral home was amazing. We chose not to have a casket so we were able to be close to him. He had on a Guyabara shirt from Venezuela that he loved. In his pockets were a pen, a fork, a snickers bar and a dog biscuit. Because that’s what he always had in his pockets.

My mom is doing really well. We were 15 minutes late to the funeral home this morning because she kept procrastinating. She’s said a few off the wall things, but they’ll be good memories we’ll be able to laugh about.

We’ll have a service Friday at church. I kinda want to stay in this bubble, where it’s not all over so it’s not entirely real.

Thank you all for letting me process here. ❤️

I am deeply sorry for your loss. You as well, Hellfire.

Mine has been gone 7 years and I miss him everyday. I've learned to accept his death as a part of my life, but sometimes it's hard to do, especially when you need to talk to him.

I go to the cemetery once a week or every two weeks to keep the grass from growing over his headstone. I talk, I laugh, I cry, I pray. Whatever comes to mind.

He will always be in your heart, and some day you'll know he's walking right beside you. Hugs.

HFSS and Hellfire,

I am so sorry for your loss(es).

I lost my parents before I was 40, and I still talk to them, think about them every day.

We are all someone's child, and I don't know that we ever get over it.

May you find comfort in your family and friends.
