I'm sure that your father knows how much you love him. My prayers go out to you and I hope that you are doing well.

Thank you for writing it. I know that it must have been very difficult to do, but sadly the stories that need to be told the most are usually the ones that are the most difficult to write.

As a woman who treasures her own father greatly I can only imagine the pain of loosing someone so loving and influential upon your life. That said, take pride that you have become just the sort of daughter that he longed for you to be, well-spoken, well-educated and clearly an accomplished woman.

I love how you have courage to put your emotions down into words, I want you to know, that were listening to your thoughts and every typen word. My English teacher showed us this website so we knew that we as woman, are very strong and powerful. I started crying reading this, because I would want to die if my dad was taken from me, for any reason. The Goverment doesn't give answers, they never do, thats just how it runs. I admire this, and you, great job. This is so sad, yet so amazing.

I do know, however, that you will always realize that your father made you the woman you are and in that way, he will always be with you.
