I Miss My Dad
Dad, it has not been easy. I can't pick up the phone. You left on June 2, 2002. I'm glad you're no longer in physical pain. I've struggled with the why's and why not's because I wasn't there when you needed me. I was always there when I needed you. Dad, forgive me, I was so tired, I didn't call you. I figured you would call me --that's the way it always was. You were so ornery, I expected you to be around forever. We had just taken you to the doctor for a check-up and you were fine, minus the warnings to quit smoking. I may never know what happened and how you spent your final hours but help us bring your name to justice for the crimes committed against you whether you were alive or dead. Keep coming to me in my sleep and help me to remember what you have said. I miss my daddy. I called you that when I was scared, most of the time you were just Dad. I'm glad we reconciled and I was with you the last six months of your life. Thank you Dad for being the best father you knew how to be and for treating me like Daddy's Little Girl even though I only got this treatment the past few months. I appreciate what you've done and how you've provided for my daughter and I. I'm sorry you won't be here for other milestones in our lives but I have to believe that in spirit you are. My father passed suddenly, seven days after his 65th birthday, in his home of a massive heart attack. He was found because there was a theft in his home and on his person and the thief bragged about her actions to someone that was concerned enough to let the police know. Unfortunately little justice has been served as many criminals have all the rights.

Thank you for posting this to your site. I found your site about three weeks ago and its taken me this long to actually write. I feel for your loss and everyone's loss I've read about. I've shed many tears but at the same time am comforted by knowing I'm not in this alone and my grieving is normal. Strangely enough I felt like I was the one living in a different world instead of just my father passing away. I'm working through my feelings and promising to work hard as my Dad would want me to.
