I think it may be still too hard to look at, but someday.

Wow, My dad passed 7 years ago....His thing was the salami and cheese gift boxes-we found one that he had stashed that was so old that the meat was jerky and the cheese was harder than concrete.

Do your dad the favor of at least looking at it. It's hard, but I can tell you that sometimes the smiles outweigh the tears.

My ornament was part of a 'crafts thing' that me and my RBGF got into. I have to laugh because I'd go to my mom's house and put it up. She really liked my GF and I would shame her into leaving it on her front door./
