A Day That Will Live in My Heart

It was more than a day of infamy.

The man who gave me the love, support and example I needed turned 21.

I miss you, Dad.

How wonderful it is to have good memories of our parents, and increasingly rare, I'm afraid. My father died when I was 4 years old, so I never really knew him. My mother became my best friend, role model and inspiration. She died in 1992, and I miss her so much still.

Sending thoughts and prayers your way.

I can really appreciate this post.

The hurt doesn't stop, it just finds a special place in one's heart...

How fortunate you were to have your Dad in your life, David, and what a contribution toward victory he made as a Marine. My Dad died of a sudden MI when I was 10 years old. Many times I would have loved to ask him his advice on various "life crises." Dad tried to enlist after Pearl Harbor but was turned down by all 4 services due to his heart trouble.

I am sorry for your loss. This sentence caught my attention:

"He was a voracious reader with tremendous intellectual curiosity."

That all fathers could be that!

God bless.
