A prayer today would be appreciated.......

I don't want to bring anyone down, but today is the 2 year anniversary of my dad's passing......I was just wondering if anyone has any extra prayers, if they could say one for the best friend I ever had......It's been 24 months since I've talked to him in person. At times it seems like yesterday, and others it seems like 24 years! Thanks.

I'm sorry it's a somber day for you, Susie. I will say a prayer for you and for your family. Hoping that someday you will be able to remember the good memories without so much pain.

Awwwwww Susie been there myself chick and i even though it's a lot longer than yours i can still see my dad as if it were only yesterday.

It does get easier it really does but it does take time.

and headbutts, and heres Rosie Posie to make you smile

Awww, thanks Chris and Susan......and Rosie Posie!!

I will certainly send a prayer for you and I will request that my Nana and Grandad take good care of him!

Nips

Susie, hon, I'll say several prayers for you today, and will light a candle in his memory tonight too. {{{HUGS}}} for you my friend, and remember we love you!

I am never to busy to send a prayer your way!

I've been told I am the female version of Dad. I disagree, but I am alot like him.
He owned several businesses as I grew up, and when he could, he always took me to work with him. He would "put me to work", counting pennies for him, washing cars for him, sweeping, etc. I always got paid with a trip to the Dairy Queen and a $5 bill. We would go to softball games together. Mom worked in retail, so she usually worked on Saturdays. Those became "our" days. We would go for a ride, and then to a nice dinner, whether that be at McDonalds or a fancy smancy place. When ever I got my heart broke, he was always there. Even later in life, after I had moved home after my divorce, we were still close. The day I moved out to marry Jerry, I watched him in my rear view mirror as I drove away to my new home, and he stood in front of the garage watching me. I cried all the way to Jerry's house. I knew I'd miss him and he'd miss me. The day that Dad died, he called each of us into his room to say goodbye, and when it was Jerry's turn, he took his hand and told him to take good care of me, and that he loved him.

That is my dad..........

You both had (and still have) a wonderful bond! Your Dad sounds like a brilliant man - he will always be with you!

Oh, Susie, now I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes from reading that, it was beautiful! Are you an only child?

No Cindy, actually, I am the youngest of 5. Admittedly, I was the closest to Dad, though he loved us all.

Oh, Susie. You certainly are in my prayers today, my friend.

That sounds like me and my Dad, Susie -- different activities, same bond. (I dread the day.)

Prayers you've got! and hugs

And a dainty little lick of consolation, from your namesake...



Be gentle with yourself, dear.

aww i got a tear in my eye too!
i wish i was that close with my dad
*give syou an extra prayer for this day*

Hugs to you! I lost my dad at 11 and my mom in 1991 it still hurts and I miss them terribly but time does make it easier to deal with!

My thoughts & prayers with you Susie, thanks for open you heart to all us...

Milky to Susie--->Auntie, can I give you a virtual big hug?... *Chuick* a little kiss ...
Hope this help to you...

Very touching and yes, I can spare a prayer.. and I will even toss in a hug if you want one (and no-one gets jealous).. *HUG*.

I'll spare all the hugs you need and a shoulder to cry on.
