Treasure the good memories and he will always be with you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
what he said.

My Dad passed 20+ years ago, and I still miss him. It hurts less, but I think about calling him to fill him in on his grandson becoming a newly minted Marine, or to ask him something about the family. Can't.

But continue to love him and remember his vitality, the fishing trips, scaring your dates with a shotgun in high school - whatever happened and revel in them.

My sympathies.

 Mine checked out in February and while we weren't close there is still this hole I haven't quite come to terms with.  I can't imagine had we been as close as you and your dad what it must feel like.

The better he was and the more you loved him, the more it hurts.

You will find him in your memories and dreams forever.

Take care.

There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
