[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - tough week. very tough.  I am just grateful that my dad passed at home, and that my mom requested he be left at home until I arrived from California so that I could say my goodbyes, even though he was already "gone".

The funeral was absolutely beautiful.  He was greatly loved by so many people.  Times like this when I have renewed hope in humanity and the kindness and love of others.

I miss my dad terribly.  It's a new emotion for me that I am going to have to get used to. [/quote]

OP, I'm so sorry about this. Yes, it's very hard and is a feeling that many of us know only too well.  I'm glad that you found blessings at his funeral. It really does help to see and know how many people loved and appreciated our parents, and their kind words about their relationship with your dad are so meaningful as you grieve.

This will be hard for a while, but it does get easier. There will come a time when thinking about your dad does not bring tears, but rather smiles, laughs and very happy memories.

Oh, and something else: Look for him to come alive in your children, when you least expect it. That has been such a gift to me.[/quote]
