There are so many memories, that I can't choose just one. But, I'll carry every one of them with me always.
Thank you for being the greatest Dad that a girl could have.
You taught me to be self-sufficient, determined, to ask questions, to always trust my gut, to take care of and be backup for the people I love. That words only matter when there's action to affirm them.
You showed love by being of service.
By taking care of people, by offering to help with anything and everything and often by jumping in and doing without offering because you had an uncanny ability to know exactly what was needed in every situation.
You were full of heart, and the toughest, most uniquely capable person I've ever known.
There's an odd kind of wisdom in grief. It brings you deeper into and closer to life, not further from it.
I once read a quote saying that grief is unexpressed love. Essentially that it was love with nowhere to go. But, I don't think that fits. I think it just feels that way at first and that it's a matter of relearning how to express that love when that person is no longer here in the physical sense.
It's a lesson that I don't f*cking want to learn.
But, anyone that knows you will know what you'd say to that.
I miss you, Dad.
I'll always miss you and I'll always Love you.
