I miss my Dad...he died a little over a month ago

[Tom Kitten]

Last day of April...he suffered a massive stroke and died the next day...It has been quite a shock because it came out of the blue...I found him and there was nothing could be done...I miss him so much!

I'm sorry if I don't reply immediately but I am crying...tomorrow is Father's Day

3. You're in my thoughts....

My dad passed in February, mom in April.

Fathers and Mothers days are done for me now.

[Tom Kitten]

13. my thoughts are with you too

My Mom passed December 2010, but it had been diagnosed terminal so we had time to prepare for the end.

But for you to lose both parents in such a short period...That is too hard.

Fathers and Mothers days are done for me now also, until I meet this person I keep dreaming about.

21. No they are not done.

They are there for fond remembrance as the years go by.
It hurts, I know, but the Love endures.

[Tom Kitten]

14. That's quite enough

I really appreciate it honestly I do!

5. so sorry, Tom.

[Tom Kitten]

15. Thank you so much

Perhaps you can find and post a nice song sometime ? As long as it's not Harry Chapin's "The Cat's In the Cradle"!

6. It's hard. Just let the feelings flow thru.

He will always be with you.

[Tom Kitten]

16. Yes he will

My dad brooked no bullshit and sometimes I thought he was embarrassing to be around but now I think he was quite correct especially in dealing with businesses...He raised issues...things would get attended to!

I see this as a life changing event actually...I see myself becoming more like him but time will tell.

7. Sorry for your loss Tom

[onestepforward]

8. So sorry, Tom.

I know it hurts. Wishing comfort and peace to you.

[Tom Kitten]

17. Thanks very much

It does hurt, the whole dealing with the estate, seeing appointments marked on the calendar etc...One puts the hurt aside for awhile but then it just rises up and washes over everything.

9. I'm so sorry. You must still be in shock. So hard to absorb at first.

Remember all you loved about him and use it in your life. It's how some of him will go on. Take care of yourself tomorrow.

[Tom Kitten]

18. I Will

the stuff I love I remember and will use...it may make me seem more obnoxious at times but that's OK isn't it?

[nolabear]

20. Unequivocally yes. We all get to be obnoxious sometimes, and sometimes think we are when we're not.

imho.

[applegrove]

10. Do sorry for your loss.

[RILib]

19. I'm sorry, Tom

you never stop missing them.
