life changes in a instant.
My father was killed in a car accident Friday night. He died amongst a sea of sirens and flashing lights, closing a road to traffic for three hours. I am very hung up on the idea of my dad dying in a crash. I wake up at 3 a.m. and start in thinking about him. It's so sad. My heart bleeds. My poor mom--they met in high school and married shortly after. He was 68 when he died. I saw my father all the time. He was a huge lover of the sea and boats. This will be a hard Holiday season for me and my family. I don't even know why I am posting this. I just think it helps to know that people out there care, people who don't even know me. So sad. So very very sad.

John, you and your family are in my thoughts. I have experienced a tragic loss of a family member and want you to know that you will eventually be able to sleep again. The hurt and sadness never go completely away, but your happy memories will win out in the end. I am very sorry about your dad.

John:
Call me if you need anything. Even if it is just a dawn walk when you can't sleep.
You have a lot to be proud of and your dad gave you life experiences and travel in your youth you can't duplicate.
My sincerest condolences bud!

John my heart goes out to you and your family sincerely at the loss of your Dad. Losing your Dad is a tough moment in anyones life and it naturally leaves a great void. I miss my Dad terribly each day. From my own loss several years ago the best advice I can give is just to cherish your Dad's memory and celebrate his life at this time. The week my Dad passed was a tough one and I spent the time getting a photo collage and mementos that represented my Dads life and accomplishments and his passions together and I had them on display in the funeral home for folks to see and it gave them some insight into who my Dad was and the wonderful life that he led. This was a great "distraction" for me and all the memories this process brought out that week really helped not only me but also my family. Be strong for your family John and those great memories of your Dad will get you through it. Keep them close now and always. I wish you and your family strength going forward.

John, I don't know what to say because there really isn't anything to say. It sounds like you guys had a great relationship and that's something that you can always have with you. Truly sorry to hear about your loss John.
