Sorry to hear about your Dad. I lost my dad in 03 but he is still with me daily. Every time I drive a nail or cut a board I think about him. He taught me so much about life. It is very hard but gets better every day. Just remember that he may not be here physically with you but he will always be with you. No amount of separation can take that away. You have a part of him you will carry with you forever until God willing you meet again. Stay strong brother and live a life that honors him.
