My Dad died in 2014 of cancer. When he was diagnosed a year before, I pondered and wondered what I could do for him. In reality, no matter how much I wanted to, nothing I could do would change the facts.
But then I realized that I could at least lift his spirits, give him something to look forward to. Each week, I wrote a short note about a memory I had with Dad, sent them snail mail. Vacations he took us on. Little helps with household projects. His firm but easy ways with discipline. Even Mom says to this day I was always a daddy's girl!
Mom keeps those memories in a binder.
In honor of Dad on Father's Day, I love you and miss you.
