At 1230 last night daddy died in my arms.I know he is in a great place.I will always remember him for his kindness,his strength,and his love.He was the one that started me in music since the age of seven.He was a true lover of "country music" and "steel guitar".He always said "when he passed through this life he would go to "Hillbilly Heaven" I believe that is where he is now.

Karen, I'm not too good with words at times like this, but what a comfort you must have been to your father, as God called him home. I only hope that I'm with someone who loves me, when my time comes. Godspeed, Rick

Reply with quote

If you look a little ways down the list, there is a sad sad story of an old steel guitar player passing by himself. How beautiful it must have been to ser the love being shared between farther and daughter. A fitting lasting tribute to both you and your farther. I won't lie and say it ever gets easy. I have greived over my farther loss for 34 years. Take care

Karen,
My warmest prayers and sympathy for your loss. I know, having lost my dad too, the universe seems a little colder and meaner without your dad, but knowing his soul is now with the Lord enjoying a brand new "glorified" body is a pretty great thing to know.

Karen, I'm so sorry to hear about your father passing, Me and Roxannes' heart go out to you and Ron at this time. I lost my dad back in '95. He was a good man, just like your dad was a good man. In fact both of my parents have gone home to be with Jesus, and one of the things that I say to someone if they ask me about them is.I am proud of who I am and of them. Because they never gave everything I wanted, but they gave me everthing I needed. Always remember the good times that ya'll had while he was around. And they will see you through. I know there's time I'll be doing something and I'll run into a problem. I'll ask myself what would daddy do? And after a few minutes of thinking, it would come to me. Sending our love'

This was taken two days before he died.I will always remember him as a hard worker that worked in the mines to keep food on the table.He never complained,even when he was sick.He was always waving in the pictures.A happy man that had a great sense of humor.I will surely miss him.Thank-you all for your kind words.This is my daddy "Bill".

Karen, I can see some resemblance in you and your dad.May the loving hands of God reach out and comfort you at this time. As time goes the pain eases. I learned something a long time from a saying on a coffee mug, it read."Anyone can be a father, but it takes someone special to be a daddy. God Bless you Karen
