My dad died today. My dad died today. I miss him already. I just need to get it out. I'm not asking for sympathy. I just need to get it out because my dad died today. Jesus, please love your parents. If they are alive, please, please tell him hi. You miss him, you love him. I'm so grateful. I told my dad I loved him before he died. I always told him I loved him, but he died today

And that is the gift that you have to always include us in your life and your journey and your compassion and your passion for life and your belief and your faith and your generosity. And your dad must have been so proud of you and loved you so much. And he is feeling you right now, and he's in this transition, and you are still holding him. You are still whispering in his ear, and he is safe and he is going to be held
But I was happy that he could join my grandmother in heaven. They were very, very close. And it was just a really. I don't know, I was just glad he was up there with her and could be my guardian angels watching out for me. So I know you're not asking for sympathy. I'm not going to give it to you because. Because you're not asking for it. And as someone who has lost a parent, I know what it's like

Evelyn, I am so sorry. Totally. My eyes are tearing up right now because I've been where you are. And I'm so glad. I told my father that I loved him and that I had that final conversation with him before he transitioned from this world. Yeah. We definitely got to tell our loved ones daily that we love them. My heart and my thoughts and my prayers are with you and your family. I'm so sorry, honey

Evelyn, I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. I'm gonna give you a big all cyber hug if you need to. Message me if you feel like it. Anyway, again, I'm so very sorry for the loss of your father. I lost my mother in 2003 due to breast cancer and then my father a few years later, so I know what it's like. Again, so very sorry for your loss. Again, I'm sending big old cyber hug

I'm truly, deeply sorry for your loss. I hope and pray that you find peace and console me during this time. I know he was a good man. I pray and know that good men are well received where they go. Then you have to live. He must have raised a good person because you come to a public place and you proclaim the devastation that you are going through because he is gone for but moments. May you find rest during this time as much as you can

Miss Leah. Thank you. I love you too. Thank you for taking the time to comment and just try to uplift me. I'm sorry about your dad. And sometimes we just know, right? I had a feeling this morning when I was praying. God woke me up at four in the morning to pray for my dad, my mom and God. God, I wish I knew, but I had a feeling. But anyway, I'm so grateful for you all

All of the many lives that he has touched, influenced, made an impact to her. One the legacy that he leaves behind. I give thanks for that. I give thanks that your father met your mother and that they created you. As I mentioned, you are in my thoughts and prayers. You are loved.

Thank you, Angie. Thank you very much. We knew prayer. Thank you. That's the best thing that you could possibly do for us at this point because my eyes are all cried out. I know I'll cry some more.

And so you have to move on and honor them by being happy, which I know is super, super hard. But you know, he'll be watching you from above, and he'll keep an eye on you for sure. And he'll never forget you. You'll never forget him, and you'll always be connected, even from afar. So we're all here for you. We all care about you. We all love you

Hi, Evelyn. I found this today and there's not a single word that I feel like I can tell you that is truly going to soothe your soul in this moment. I lost my father a long time ago, so I can relate to you when it comes to that. I heard you say that today is your parents 55th wedding anniversary. That is amazing. And I hope that there was a moment of celebration for that. Even though there's so much going on right now. I am

@LadyFi · 0:59
Thank you so much. My dad is. He'll always be with me, but just, you know, I can't touch him. I can't talk to him in the flesh. But he is with Jesus now, and there's no pain ever. And I'm I'm glad about that, but I'm sad that he, his voice is silenced and I can't hear it anymore or get a hug from him anymore. That part is, is hard. I'm grateful

And you're not asking for advice. You're not asking for anything. You just want to be heard. But the feeling that you're projecting is felt by everybody listening. So thank you for sharing that with me. Give your mom a hug. And then take a moment to wrap your arms around yourself and close your eyes and feel your father's presence. It will bring you so much peace. Blessings

I wanted to tell you. Thank you so much. I just saw your reply. I really appreciate it because I really do miss my father. Today was another rough day. We have some planning done and we know when the funeral is going to be, so I guess we got that done. But I appreciate your words of encouragement, being so gracious because it is hard. And thank you for letting me know that I have a community here. Appreciate people like yourself. So thank you so much

I wish I could, but hang in there. Always remember as long as you keep them in your heart and remember all the good times that you shared together and all the good memories and everything that y'all did together. And remember him when he was happy. The things he taught you, everything you learned from him. Always remember that. And remember the good times that y'all shared. He's always there with you in spirit. Remember that also. Take care. Stay strong, okay
