Today's anniversary is a bittersweet one. It seems so hard to believe that it was one year ago that Dad went home to be with His Lord. This year has been a whirlwind one to say the least.
Dad, there is hardly a day that goes by that I do not mention your name, remember something about you, look at something that reminds me of you. Just yesterday for example, I was approaching an intersection and there were two big rigs (18 wheelers, aka Semi-Trailers) - one was stopped and one was coming across the bridge and I stopped several meters before the stop sign to allow the rigs lots of room to drive by and around. The one guy gave me a big wave of thanks and I immediately thought, "Dad would be proud."
And on Sunday Mom was talking about how Dad could park our trailer in any site in the campground - the people would stand around and watch in awe of his manoeuvre skills. An amazing Dad, my Father! A man of many talents.
Love you Dad and miss you and in my heart forever!
Yes Jack, we will miss you, taken from us too soon.
ReplyDeleteRest assured, your spirit lives on in your daughter. I often remark to Brenda that I see her Dad in many activities and expressions. Just another way we can hold you close to our hearts.
