I lost my father today

We all will pray for you. Take care of yourself. I lost my father at 66 years old in 1996. He wouldn’t reveal the symptoms he had been having (mini-strokes) until he had to be transported to the ER. Something about those strong silent guys trying to work through their ailments on their own… Grieving has no set time or formula. Again, take care of yourself through this process. I’m so sorry…
 
Thinking about you good sir. My father also passed August 19th 2016. The things I do everyday honor's him and his memory.
 
Prayers for you and your family my friend. I lost my Mom February 2023. She was a week shy of her 76th birthday. It seems like yesterday. You will always have him in your heart and he is smiling down on you, always!
 
When my father died, a coworker, whose father had died earlier, quoted something along the lines that the passing of a guy's father is the last leg to becoming a man.
It involved no longer having that universal teacher/critic/friend/tormentor in your life.
His snippet was way more poetic and satisfying than I can recall at the moment.
I wonder if we all feel it when this time comes.
Pardon my posting without finding the source/author.
 
It is a firm reminder, that our time on this earth, is limited. The only thing we really have is time. My dad died when I was 15 of a similar circumstances. You should feel good about your time with him. It will get better.
