8 years ago...


8 years ago today my dad passed away. It seems as though every year that passes I think about him more and more. The memories are more vivid as years go by. I remember the first year he passed away I was scared that I would forget his voice or time we spent together, but I'm glad to say my memories haven't let me down.

So on the weekend I called my brother and sister to set up a dinner at my moms house. My dad loved when the family was all together laughing, sharing stories and having a good time.

And we have so much joy in our family with our nieces.

Sister love.

  3. it's so great that your family got together in honor of your dad. hold on tightly to those memories of your dad tania, no one can ever take those away from you!

    the scripture in the Bible at Revelation 21:4 comforted me when my grandmother died, "God will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death wil be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away." That's what I look forward to.
