Dear Daddy

Mom picked up your ashes today. It feels better that you’re home. We’re going to pick out a flower arrangement from all of us tomorrow. I’m going to take mom to lunch and spend the afternoon with her. I feel numb but can’t stop crying at the same...

@AlittleBitGenX you should delete summer2025s comment and block her. She is like this with too many people here. You don't need these words about your loss. She did the same with me.

@Summer2025 I feel sorry for you. Your lack of empathy shows me you’ve never truly loved and that’s sad. I pray someday you love someone so much it changes your world.

The heartbreak of losing family and friends :(

My own dad lived to be 97 and his last years were here with us, a thousand miles from his beloved home town where we have a family tomb. He also died during a snowy winter and and after a local service I put his ashes in the trunk of my car, to be taken "home" in the spring for burial there. So for a few months, with his ashes in the trunk, it really felt like we were together in spirit, driving around like we often did together when he was alive, just enjoying one another's company. When alone I even found myself talking to him. Though unable to talk to me, I knew what he would say. We were close. Though those ashes have been put to final rest in the family tomb, I still find myself talking to him.

Give yourself a big hug.
