My dad was a tall guy too. He was 6'3" lean and perfectly healthy. It was so hard for me to see a perfectly health man laying in a casket.

Thank you for your support.

Thank you to RobiLee, Anna, Rizzy and Sammy101 for your thoughts and prayers.

Last night as I was going through my mail, I received a letter from his estate attorney. The sale of his houses and vehicles and such was all complete. My inheritance is on the way. I would give every red sent and then some back for just one more day with him.

I can, however, take comfort in the fact that everyone said that when he found out he was going to be a grandpa, it was the last time anyone saw him smile. I made him smile one last time. He even held his head high, his shoulders back, hugged me and my hubby and said, "finally, some good news." He even laughed a little bit.

Remember the good times, I guess. Remember how he lived, not how he died.

I miss you, Dad!
