I lost my dad a couple years ago. People say you'll get over it,**** that. I don't ever want to get over my feelings for my parents. How much it hurts parellels how you felt about them. Miss them all the time. Don't loose those feelings,or the memories. My dad loved cars too. My mom loved the 50's and old cars. It's okay to be sad. I'm sad just typing this message. Take care.
My thoughts are with you. I lost my mom 5 years ago today. I've told so many to tell their folks how much they care and take time to be with them. For your Pop RIP.
Cherrish the memories and revel in the fact that you where close to him... too many people have dead beats. Your dad sounds like a great man. I am sorry. .
Words cannot express true loss. Take time to greive, but never forget. Know that he is gone, but never forget just what he meant to you. You only loose the ones you forget. To have been so close to your father, a true blessing. My wife lost her father when she was 4. It will be 20 years in a few days, abd she is a wreck, just like every year. She only remembers her father as the kemo patient on ho****e. Cherish the good times. God bless.
Sorry for your loss. I've never really had a real relationship with my father - stuff like this makes me want to re-start though
I'm very glad you got to have a few words with him before he p***ed. I never got that chance. You'll be thankful for that. My thoughts are with you. God Bless.
Man my Pops is my very best friend and I can't imagine. Thinking of the day makes me sick. God bless your dad, you and your family. That is what I like about this board. Some cool car brothers with some big o hearts.
It's hard to respond to these threads because I want to say something that'll help heal your hurt. My condolences and prayers to you and your family is about I can give you. I went through the same thing 2 years ago. It might help to know you're not alone. Things will be tough but your dad will still live through you and your memories.
My condolences to you and your family. I lost my dad a couple years ago. It was good that you got to say good bye. Hang in there bro.
My sincere condolences for your loss. Now you are the dad and that will change your life. Be proud that you could tell him you loved him and hear it back. Sounds like you had it together and that will last even if he is gone.
Man, Im so sorry about your dad. My dad p***ed Dec. 27- 06 and its the worst thing I've been through in my life. Some one said '' No one ever dies until there is no one left who remembers them'' I'll never forget my dad ,and I know you won't ever forget yours.
JTC, You totally have my condolenses!!! Last year my Dad had his bladder & prostate removed and they used his lower intestine and built that into a bladder. That was one year ago day before yesterday. The very day he gets a clean bill of health on that deal he gets a call from his GP that he now has bone cancer! I don't know if this one is winable? But my Dad is very close to me & my sister. We talk all of the time he unknowlingly got me into old cars because that's all he could afford to drive back in the 60's. I feel for you man! If you need anybody to talk with, I'm here for you.
No matter how old we get we're not quite ready to lose Ole Dad. Mine's been gone 11.5 years. Sorry to hear another is gone.
Sorry for your loss.... Its good that you had the chance to say goodbye, I lost my Dad 3 years ago, he was in England, I was in California....Never had the chance to say goodbye. RIP
You guys just blow me away. This has really been the hardest day of my entire life and all your kind words help. Hearing your little stories and just getting the responses keeps me thinking how lucky I was to have him for the time I did. The support you guys have shown has helped me greatly through the day. The fact that you guys take the minute to type out a note really makes more difference than you know. My dad was a great man, and I like to think that theres at least a little of him in me. I mean this in the most sincere manner possible, Thank You. Each one of you. Joe
I remember gettin' to say I love you to my Dad when he died 11 years ago. It makes the process somewhat less heart-breaking I reckon. Condolences to you and ya family.
