Thank you all so much for your kind words of support! It really means a lot to me. Sometimes I think people want you to “hurry up and get over it” but you just get through it instead and always have that ache of missing them. I feel really grateful to have such kind people write such nice words of support!! My dad would be amazed at getting all this attention. He was a good guy who was content letting others shine and making people happy behind the scenes. It was such a loss. Thank you all for your words.

I’m so proud of you for being able to write this. I lost my Dad in very similar circumstances last year – I was in floods of tears when reading your letter. It was like reading my own thoughts.
Best wishes to you.

Sorry for your loss, but what an excellent, dynamic letter of tribute you have written. You are indeed right about one thing; no matter how well we take care of ourselves and how meticulously we plan our futures, our Ace of Spades could be pulled any time! The takeaway could be summed up in one word: LIVE! PS, My wife is a stage 2 skin cancer survivor, so I know all too well the fear and anxiety involved with the loved ones of the victims of this awful affliction.

I’m in tears. Be grateful that you had the best dad ever and know that he had the best daughter.

Kristi-
I’ve been without my father over twenty-five years now. I still miss him and still wish I could have said things to make it better. He had faith, I didn’t.
Your letter made me smile and I felt my father’s spirit near me.
