I Miss My Dad
Hello I am not sure how to wite this ,I was never a very articulate person.I or i mean to say we(my family) lost the most important man in our lives June 21,2001.My father John Murray Doner Sr. was a very wise and honest man.He was a manager in a local supermarket and everyone knew him.He did his best to help everyone as an example he once ran out of a certain variety of catsup that happened to be on sale that week.this lady asked my dad if he had any in the store and he told her there was none but to cme back the next day and it would be there.My ather went out of his way to go to the distributor himself to get a case of catsup so the lady could have her favorite brand.That should tell you about the great father i had.he worked tirelessly to put food on the table and clothes on our backs.I know it wasn't easy at all with a wife and 8 children.I have a wife and 3 children myself and i don't know how he managed with 8 of us. My Dad was diagnosed with malignant Melanoma in 1997 at Thanksgiving time.with the endless support of our mom, dad had the best care anyone could ask for.She did everything one could do short of being his doctor herself.I remember the day dad told me he had cancer, he said it was melanoma and it he was going to die from it.my heart just fell on the floor.I never ever thought that my parents would ever pass away .I told my father EVERY DAY that i loved him, and hugged and kissed him every time i visited him.The whole family was present when our father passed away.I can't believe that it was almost 10 months ago. I miss my father very much. I say hello to him every morning as i walk to work.I know he is watching over us as we go on with our lives. and learn how to ber the absence of our father in our physical world.We had all hoped dad could have a summer of 2001 that he could actually enjoy after spending the previous 4 too sick to even go outside.We didn't know that the first day of summer would be the last day i would get to hug and kiss my dad. I LOVE YOU DAD!!!! I am so proud to have had you as my father I Feel you around me all the time. and wish i could just hear your voice again. Wayne
