I’m very sorry for your loss. Fathers (and mothers) are such special people in our lives, and, thank you for helping to remind me of that. I can’t imagine not having my dad or mom, so please know that my thoughts go out to you.

This touched me. My own dad is here, but ill. Thanks for reminding me that even if August 6th isn’t his birthday, it’s a fine day to call and get to talk to him.

My thoughts are with you.

I don’t believe we ever fully get over the loss of someone who has been important in our lives. But when I’m at my best, I know that the spirit of my father is within me.

I am so very sorry for your loss, and the video tribute is such a beautiful idea. What a great way to share the life of someone you love with others.

I’m watching my mom age, and suddenly I can see it coming really fast. I worry about her, and know that when she goes, it will forever alter my life. I dread the pain of her loss.

Be well & enjoy your life & your family!

My dad would have been sixty this year. It’s been 8 years now. The big ache is gone, but I still miss him every day. It does get easier. I am sorry for your loss.

I am sorry for your loss. I lost my own dad, at age 82, back in 2004 and I have to admit that I still haven’t gotten over it. I love your idea of posting the tributes.

Best,
Roy
