My deepest sympathies to you and your family Sharon. Hardest thing in life is losing a family member within your own family. Your Father I know meant the world to you. Your Love was so very strong between you. I remember you telling stories of your parents at work, the excitement in your voice when you were going to see them. Your Father was blessed having you as his daughter. His body may have worn out yet his spirit lives on. It lives on inside you and your brothers. I lost my Father 11yrs ago and a day does not go by that I don’t think of him and some thoughts bring laughter and others bring tears yet I know he is with me. They are never far away.
Love You ️
