My father passed away 10 years ago tomorrow. It is strange to type that...I can't believe it has been 10 years since I have heard his voice, his laugh or his whistle. He was full of humor, wisdom and emotion, something he didn't like. He was of that generation that was not supposed to show their emotions. I am a lot like him, I love to laugh, hope to have wisdom and I am filled with emotion. I can't not cry no matter how hard I try! I always felt bad for my dad because he felt he had to leave the room so we could not see the tears. He loved us SO much and we all felt it.
When he passed away the real estate office I worked at, sent me a floral arrangement. It is a silk arrangement because I was away at the funeral. It is beautiful and I put it out every year and think of him and those that sent it. Memories, family and friends...it is what makes our lives rich and worthwhile.
