On Wednesday, November 23, I began to learn the lesson of grief.
My Dad died unexpectedly at 11:05 that night. I've experienced death before many times. But never the death of a parent. We all know that death will come, however, that knowledge does nothing to get us prepared for the heart wrenching, I can't breath pain that follows.
I have so many reasons to be thankful and I will share them with you one day soon. For now the grief is too strong and has clouded everything I think and see. I know the fog will lift and the memories will be sweet and when that happens I will be able to share the life of, for me...
...the Best Dad Ever!
Lovely sentiments. His memory will stand as a testament and an example of a life well lived. He touched thousands of people with love, good will, and caring. Good job and we look forward to more from you.
