Tribute Site

A friend of my dads set up a tribute site for him. I'm amazed at how many lives my father touched. Everyday I find someone new who knew him.. Here is a link to that site: Deedon Tribute The guy who set this site up did a wonderfull job! When I saw it I just cried and cried. I know he is gone, but I still expect to get a call from him any day now to see how I'm doing. And I know in a way he is still here watching over me and what not, but its not the same.. I want my daddy back

Arizona

Its been a long and stressful few days.. My dads service was held Friday. I flew into Dallas Thursday, where I met my sister in the airport bar. We were able to fly into Phoenix together.
It was hard being at my dads house and going through his stuff. At one point my sister and I broke down crying in my dad's closet. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to deal with everything..
It was a very emotional and trying time. On the flight into Dallas I couldn't stop crying. It was good, though, to see family members. My sis and i spent the weekend eating chinese food and getting drunk..

A Poem

My Father

I sit here trying to come up
with something awesome and wonderful
to say about my father. It's not hard,
for he was a great man, loved by many.
But it was not exactly easy either.
He was not always there growing up,
but he sure did try to make up for it.

He is no longer seen in our world,
yet he still walks among us.
His words will forever
touch our hearts and souls

You gave me life, and your big feet.
Not to mention your height.
Our time to say goodbye came to quickly
but I must say,
My father you will always be.
no matter where,
I know you will always look out for me.
I love you Daddy!

A Passing

December 24, 1939 - March 26, 2007

My Father passed away yesterday. It doesn't feel real. I don't know what I'm suppose to do, or how to feel. I just know it hurts alot, and I feel lost. It was too soon. All I can think about is how He made me promise he could wakl me down the isle, and now he can't. I promised him he could see his grandkids whenever he wanted, and I never had any for him to see. He was a great man, and I never took the time to get to know him more. The last time I talked to him, I was in such a hurry. If only I knew then that it would be the last time I would ever talk to him, I would of made more time.
