(me & my Dad)
Call upon me
in the day of trouble:
I will deliver thee....
Psalm 50:15
That is just what God has done.
Delivered my Dad in the time of trouble
When the pain in his bones overtook him
God delivered him
Last Wednesday, April 20th at 8:21 am
my Dad passed away
Although knowing he's in heaven
brings me great comfort
the hurt in my own heart
runs so deeply
I have come to learn what I could have never known:
how much it hurts to lose
a parent until now
It is too absolute, too final for my mind to wrap around
At times, I cannot believe that the person
who was the oak tree in our family
my Dad passed away
Although knowing he's in heaven
brings me great comfort
the hurt in my own heart
runs so deeply
I have come to learn what I could have never known:
how much it hurts to lose
a parent until now
It is too absolute, too final for my mind to wrap around
At times, I cannot believe that the person
who was the oak tree in our family
with its great trunk
is now gone
I was never afraid he wasn't strong enough or tough enough
The first most important man in my life
The one who knew everything I needed to know
I was never afraid he wasn't strong enough or tough enough
The first most important man in my life
The one who knew everything I needed to know
And if he didn't know, then no one did
And it didn't matterHow can I let go when I still need him here
How selfish of me when his pain was so extreme
I know he's in heaven
but the loss is overwhelming.

I am so sorry for your loss. I just recently lost my Mother in January. Not a day goes by when I don't say to my husband, "It's just not real yet." You are in my prayers. May God be with you and your family.

My deepest sympathy Wendy. My Mom and Dad have both passed. I can only hope my son who was tragically killed 6 weeks ago is with them, it is the only comfort I can find in this. The loss of a Mom or Dad is so strong, children the utmost worst. I wish you great comfort in your memories and photos, sadly it is all we've left. Love,Lori
