Happy Father's Day... Dad!

Dad -

I just wanted to say Happy Father's Day... it's our first one without you here! It hardly seems fair to have a holiday to celebrate Dad's when you are no longer around. I know it's not all about me,but somedays I feel like it should be! (I know you taught me better than that.)

I heard your voice on my voicemail the other day... and it made me smile. I wish that I could call you back...

I have had both you and Deven's Dad on my mind alot this week. The time seems so short since both of you have been gone... Have you seen Deven's Dad?

I want you to know that you are an AMAZING Dad and I feel so fortunate to have been able to spend 35 years with you!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!! I LOVE YOU!
Amy

"Thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name. All I have are memories and a picture in a frame. Your memory is a keepsake, with which I'll never part. God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart."

I too read this story to my Son who is in his 40s now. I tried to recite what I could remember to my Grandchildren. They are 14 & 10 now but Im sure they will listen at least once. So happy to have found it.
