today - it is hard to comprehend that a week ago that he left us and went home - it is just so hard - I know we are all trying our best to stay busy and not be so miserable and feel so lonely but it is hard not to, today wasn't a good day, at least for me, I cried most of it and just felt alone - I just miss him so much....
It's been a week.....
I love you dad!
Much love to all,
I too had a bad day yesterday. Back to work, back to a routine
ReplyDeleteCards on my desk, everyone saying they are sorry, everyone having their own story about losing a loved one. I felt alone all day even with the attention. I know in my heart dad would not want us to sit and grieve and stop life. Today was a little better than yesterday, which was better than the day before, which was better then the day before that. Only time will heal the open wound that will never fully close. I received a card yesterday that i though described dad and how he would want to be remembered:
His humor, his wisdom,his warmth - all will be missed
Your dad was a special person
He touched lives of those around him with his warmth and care.
And though mere words can never say enough at times like this, please know you're thought of and you loss is one that many share.
That is so true dad touched so many and we are not alone
This is the thought that I will hold on to.
Thanks Dad for everything - I love you

Michele and Jenny,
ReplyDeleteKeep writing to your Dad.
It's good for the soul.
And I'm sure he is 'listening'
So just 'listen' back.
Sometime if you sit and bring his face to mind.
He's talking to you, and if he should
brush your shoulder just say "Hi Dad".

How very true and very beautiful, Dave. After many years I feel mother near me. I talk to her often.
