Missing Dad


Two Blog Friday.....

I just realized my dad died 31 years ago today. I can't believe it's been that long. I lost my precious Mum the day after Christmas this past year. I'm an orphan now. It's hard to believe that I'm now the "older" generation.

Isn't he SOOOOOOO good looking?? I sure didn't realize it when I was a kid, but he died when he was 59 and I'm nearly that age now! It's all relative, isn't it?

I miss you dad!

Big Hugs,
Corky

    Yes,my friend who happened to be a therapist said yrs ago,bla,bla,before you become an orphan.I had never thought someone with parents could become an orphan.But thats how it happens to all,isn't it?...Ann

  5. Hi
    That photo of your dad makes me think of mine. He was only 59 when he died too and I have a wonderful photo like yours of him in his uniform. He died 28 years ago and I still miss him! His birthday was April 2 and I had thought of doing a post of him in his uniform too!

    Its always so hard losing our loved ones, and I find the anniversay's are always so difficult.
