    Default I lost my hero tonight

    My dad died tonight at 6:45 p.m. Even though I know he's no longer suffering and no longer in pain I still feel as if a large part of me has been ripped out. Everything I learned about life he taught me, whether it was how to throw a football (he was a rabid Pack fan), how to clean a mess of freshly caught fish, how to balance a checkbook, just about everything I learned I learned from him. He was an awesome father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and husband to my mother. He was also my best friend. I hope he knew that I loved him and will miss him.

    Sorry for your loss, it is now your turn to carry on the legacy and live the life that he left for you and up to the standards to which he expected. You can do it. He will live on forever through you.

    I offer my condolences.

    The Road goes ever on and on
    Down from the door where it began.
    Now far ahead the Road has gone,
    And I must follow, if I can,
    Pursuing it with eager feet,
    Until it joins some larger way
    Where many paths and errands meet.
    And whither then? I cannot say.

    I grieve with you and offer my heartfelt condolences.
    He sounds like a wonderful man and father,
    and you are an extension of all that he was.

    He knows how much you cared and loved him! Pick a moment in time where you and he were having the most fun, and lock it in your brain, and thats how you will see him forever. God bless!!

    I am so sorry for your loss. Believe me, I know what you are feeling. Although it's easier said than done....think about the wonderful times you had with him and not that he is gone. Just remember that his body may no longer be here, but I assure you his spirit lives on!!

    Midnight my prayers are with you and remember all the good times you and your day had together. I too will be going through this soo myself. My father was just diagnisoted with lung and colon cancer. He has made the decision to live the rest of his life as well as he can and not fight it he does not want the pain of treatment.

    Thanks for your prayers and kind words, guys. It's been hectic around here today with funeral arrangements and food (we've been given enought food to start our own restaurant). We've got relatives coming I didn't even know existed (and some I thought were doing time lol lol not really). Once again, thanks guys I appreciate it very much. And Mom is doing great.
