IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 4 MONTHS SINCE WE LAID DAD TO REST. HARDLY A DAY GOES BY THAT I DO NOT THINK OF HIM. HE WAS VERY SPECIAL AND HE MADE ALL WHO KNEW HIM FEEL SPECIAL.
ReplyDeleteI doubt my reaction to the death of a good father is not that unusual. Lately, I have dreamed about my late Dad. Even in my dreams I still learn from him. Dad, you left a mighty wide path of good living that I try to stay on.
