My Dad Passed July 18th of last year. Today I miss him so much. I have gotten through the grieving process, yet today has been a little sad for me. I pray for all here that you find comfort today knowing that are loved ones are at peace now.

I miss my father, Howard, still so very much. His 2 year anniversary of his Home Going is only a few weeks away, 6/29. We had an extraordinary father/daughter relationship ... which makes it so much harder to bear. I lost my mom 7 yrs before that. I've learned that the grief really never goes away, it just gets a little easier to bear with the passing of time. What I have learned from their loss and my grief, that no matter how many relationships or friendships I've had, or how many people declare how much I mean or have meant to them, the only true constants in my life were my parents. Their love for me surpassed any other demonstrated by other people in my life including family. No matter my failings or shortcomings, I could count on them being there for me no matter what. I will never be convinced otherwise. I truly look forward to the time that we'll hug and be together again. Happy Father's Day in Heaven, Pop! Love you!

Omgoodness Jennifer yes!!! The father's day marketing seem to be non stop....it still hurts....I was looking to get a card for my husband but couldn't deal with being in the card section. Last year I totally fell apart, as well as leading up to it. This will be the 2nd year so I'm hoping it won't be as bad. I understand that life goes on for other folks as well, but it doesn't stop the pain of missing my own father. )-:

Jennifer,yes I know what you mean with all the hype.for me it was Mother's Day the first time without her. Painful to be in the card section picking for my daughter but not my mom. Not as bad this year. I know the world continues as before but sometimes it sure doesn't feel that way!

Does anyone else hate all the marketing hype about Father's Day? The day itself is difficult without weeks of ads mentioning the importance of a special day with Dad. And with each mention, I have a few more moments reflecting on my loss. (I lost my Dad unexpectedly about 2 years ago.) From my perspective it feels so insensitive. I try not to take it personally. I was wondering if anyone else was feeling the same this week leading up to Father's Day?

Denise, My deepest sympathy. I remember vividly being in the same space you are in now. I didn't know where to turn. Know that the feelings you have are perfectly normal. It will never be 'easy' but trust that it all will become a little more manageable with time.

My mom passed away almost 2yrs ago.When I'm missing her I sit down with old photos or her jewelry or samples of her handwriting to make her seem close.It always brings a smile to my face.My dad seems to like to remember through photos too.He's almost 87.Married 60 yrs.I get so sad watching him fade to Alzheimer's.We are very close.
