Father's Day is hard since my Dad passed away. It's even harder this year because of some life situations that I'm going thru.
I really wish he was here to talk to right now.
I'm just sad.

Mine passed nine years ago too. I sympathize. ❤️

My dad also passed away 9 years ago. I have missed him so badly this last awful year. He had a quiet strength that I so wish I could lean on...
((Hugs to all))

Mine's been gone 10 years now. I think of him every day. I get it.

August will mark 6 years for me. Father's Day was hard, but I think my birthday is harder because he used to call and sing to me. The anniversary date is always hard as I start remembering everything that led up to his death beginning in July when he got his 2nd round of pneumonia.

I still drive my dad’s old 2003 Ford truck. The only “change” being I rotate my dad’s six Johnny Cash CD’s every now and then. Every time I get into that truck I think of my dad and miss him and mom terribly. But still in a good way and I try to turn the pain into a sense of gratefulness for having had the best parents ever.

I feel the same way. I’m so sorry.
