I will go the other way and say how happy I am that he lived so long and you had his company for all that time. Many of us lose the best way too early.

Nice sentiment, Sip - my dad was only 65 - way too young.

Regardless of how old they are, its never easy to lose someone close to us, my sincere condolences to you sir.

gamedic,

Please accept my condolences on the loss of your dad. I am glad that you had a goodly number of years with him and you have lots of memories to draw on for comfort.

Hang in there. As other forum members have said, the grief eases over time and you'll find yourself smiling at the unexpected recollection of some goofy thing you two did together.

I lost my father in August of last year.

It gets easier with time, but it will never be the same.

I understand the shock and grief that comes with the loss of a parent. My father moved on almost five years ago at the age of 86; my mother died last year at 91. Please accept my sympathies.

The loss is never any less a loss, but with time it becomes a more bearable loss. It sounds as though he had a great life. I agree with Sip that he was fortunate to have it as long as he did, and you were fortunate to have him as long as he was doing it.

I lift a virtual glass in an electronic toast to your father: Sir, well done. You have earned your rest.

My deepest sympathies to you and yours. Looks like he had a good run.
it was 11 yrs ago this st paddy's day we layed my father to rest, there is not a day goes by that i dont think of him. We are Irish and he always said that when he dies ,he wanted to be buried on St Patty's day or die on that day.. I guess he got his wish.

Sorry for your loss. It's hard to lose the anchor-point of your whole life when a parent passes away.
Things will get better, but there's always that pain, just keep
remembering when you were still learning, it'll lift your spirits.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I lost my dad in 1975 when I was just 15. I miss him everyday. Try to remember good times with your dad, it should make it a little easier. I am going to see my dad again someday, and you will see yours.

Godspeed,

Dwight

Your dad was a fine man. We all have to have our time here on earth and it's what we do with it that counts. He made it count. May his legacy and memory bring you peace.

The wonderful times you had with your father will give you pleasure in the years to come. You can fondly remember the good times and those memories will make you smile inside often. As you know you were lucky to have had him all those years and I'll bet he felt the same about you.

My sympathies to you and your family. It sounds like your father was a wonderful teacher and a great inspiration to you. May you continue his teaching for many many years.

I'm so sorry for your loss. We buried my dad on Monday. I'm still in shock. I think about he and my mother everyday.

They're not really gone as long as you remember them.
