Today is Fathers Day, the day you give thanks to the one man in your life that tested you yet loved you regardless of how you measured up... loved you with pride because of your flaws and imperfections not despite them. The man who taught you that same sense of pride, to be strong and never let anyone see you cry. The man that always put a smile on your face anytime you saw him because he was always able to light up a room with a quick witty joke or maybe just a glance of his charismatic smile, the very one that made your mother fall in love with him. Yes today is the day we say thank you to dad for... well, for being Dad.

But it should be more than that to us, I say that because whether you are a man or if you are in love with a man, maybe your now even a father yourself regardless of which one of these applies to you, you basically have your own father to thank for that. He is the one that defined for you what a man is suppose to be. We really do grow up to be our Parents.



I found out today how routine saying I love you or thank you can be. Today is not just Fathers day anymore, Sadly enough it's also the day I lost mine, he passed away this afternoon.



I'm not sure what it may be in your eyes that makes your dad special to you but what I do know is that he is special non the less. So trust me... do yourself and your father justice, say thank you once last time.



Thank you for everything... I love you.

Thank you. Sorry that I rambled... to lose your father on Father's day just hits it home and forces you to think long and hard about what you have said and done or not done. I was fortunate enough to have a dad that was the pinnacle of what a father should be.

Severus,



I offer my deepest heartfelt condolence to you and to all whom have been affected by your father’s transition. My regards and sympathy, to your wife and your children.



I was never close to daddy. However, I had made plans to visit him after not having seen him for many years. I was going to travel/drive to see him. However, my father, died suddenly days before I was to drive to where he lived at the time. I never got to say goodbye to him.



In my opinion, all who may read this, please consider in your hearts what herein was stated on Severu’s June Journal. As well as, what I have written here. That what happened to me, with my father, may not happen to any.



I did not get to say goodbye to my father. I did not even speak to him on the phone. I was going to show up as a surprise. But it was too late. We were not close but he was my father.



Victorya
