So sorry for your loss...just think about the times you had, as you are lucky to have gotten to know the man who you have come to appreciate. My father was a police officer kille din the line of duty when I was only 7 yrs old and my brother was 2. We never got to know the man, and because of whatever reason, I have absolutely no memory of his voice, his mannerisms or anything about else my father.
It is a sad loss on your part, but smile to know that you knew who and what he was. Others sometimes aren't as lucky to have at least some memories...

Sorry for your loss NM.
I am sure you were not "alone" on Sunday, he just didn't have to use the door.

Thanks again for all the kind words....yesterday was just a really bad day. What I wouldn't give for just one more visit....
We were close and he was my best friend. One of the few men I can say I truely respected.
I feel very fortunate to have had him as my father...and I hope when my time comes I will be remembered as he has been.
Thanks again for all the well wishs and kind words...and sorry for being so sentimental.

Awesome tribute NM. You are so lucky to have had such a great relationship with your dad. Seems like most people just kind of take our relationship with our parents for granted but I think you have shown us not to do that. I think your being sentimental taught some of us a good lesson. I for one Thank You.
