    Today, the 22nd, is the day in 1973, when my dad proposed to my mom in the parking lot of the neighborhood Safeway. They were married about three weeks later on March 18th. They almost reached their 36th wedding anniversary.

    I am truly sorry for your loss. My dad passed away 4 years ago at the age of 70, and my FIL passed 2 months ago at 72. Nothing makes it easy, losing a parent is very hard. You will never stop missing him. Know you are in my thoughts and prayers. :(

    BTW...my Dad's nickname was BIG BAD BILL!!! :D

    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

  • I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my father this past summer, and it was probably the hardest experience. I am still trying to get through it - the memories are what keeps my heart in line

    I hope that you will soon have a modicum of peace within your loss.

    My thoughts are with you, now and in the future, as you will have to stumble along with this loss while maintaining your life...

    e-hug.

    Sorry to hear this news. I lost my father just over 4 years ago at 69, the day after the Red Sox finally won the World Series. I went from elation to despair in about 12 hours time, life can really deliver a swift groin kick sometimes. From experience I can tell you that the sadness will dissipate as time goes by, and the fond memories will always be what you remember most.

    Stay strong for your mother.

  • I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I lost my dad when I was 16 and his warm heart and laugh are the things I remember most. I only have 2 pictures of him and wished I had more.

    My biggest suggestion is right now, no delay, start writing down all the memories you have of him. As time goes by things are forgotten and having something to go back to for your sake and those of your own family is worth the time and effort in the present.

    The quote is wonderful and it shows the care you had for the man.

    I'm very sorry for your loss. You and your family have my sympathies :(
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.
