My Daddy passed away peacefully yesterday. Looking at this blog, I hadn't realized how many times I have shared stories of him and pictures of him also. If you type "Daddy" into the search engine at the side of my blog, you will see what I mean. Reading those posts, I think that my great love shows for him. I hope he knew it too.
He really loved the film, "O Brother, Where Art Thou". I have a song for you here. Hope you like it.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Kay. My condolences to you and your whole family at this difficult time. I associate the song "Big Rock Candy Mountain" with my Dad too (who passed away almost 15 years ago). He used to sing it to me when I was a little girl.
ReplyDeleteMy heart aches for you, i am so sorry. From everything you posted, i know he was a good and great man in every sense of those words.
ReplyDeleteDear Kay, If I didn't have a great Dad myself, I would have wanted yours! He was a wonderful person and I have not the slightest doubt that he knew how much you loved him. It must be so very hard right now for you. All I can do is send you a big, virtual hug and offer my listening ear (or reading eye) when you feel like it.
ReplyDeleteOh, Kay, my heart goes out to you! I always enjoyed hearing your stories about your Dad and I know you loved him so much. Convinced her certainly knew that too. Ah, losing parents is such an adjustment. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers. I'm glad he passed peacefully. You take care...big hugs.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear this.
ReplyDeleteA sad loss.
So sorry to hear of your loss. I remember all the times you've written about him. He truly was a good man and a great father. Sending you hugs and love.

This is such a tough time, but I know you know how lucky you were to have had this man as your father. I send you my best hugs from Ohio and many prayers.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry for your loss, I always enjoyed your posts about him. Love that movie too. Caught a bit of it on tv the other night.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to find that your father died. The two of you had an obvious loving bond. I have been in the same situation and it hurts so terribly. You have a lot of memories of him to cherish.
