I still want to be able to call him, ask him about things.

I held it together for the funeral but lost it afterwards, having the flag really helps.

I was going to be with my Father over the weekend, seems so unreal.

It is so strange now without having a parents.

Have a good journey Dad, you will be missed.

2. Sending good vibes your way.
Not too long from now only the happiest memories will remain and the rough patches will seem tiny.

8. My Dad's bithday would have been in a few days. First one since he passed. Ditto with
Thanksgiving. I'm out of parents too, except for my FIL.

So here's a hug for each of us during this sad time. :hug: And here's a toast to our folks. :toast: :)
