@catlover 

so sorry for the passing of your dad.  There is no greater loss when both parents are gone☹️.  My parents died young and there isn't a day in the past 32 years I don't miss picking up the phone or stopping by their home.  

Prayers for you & your family

My condolences to you @catlover .  Go ahead and “cry like a baby”....that’s ok.  Crying is a cleanser for the soul,  helping it to heal.  Cry as long as you need to.

@catlover, my heart feels your loss. Both of my parents are gone and I think of them so often still - the good memories are what you will remember. Take care and know that many here are thinking of you.

I am so sorry to hear of this loss to you and your family.

This is a devastating loss. Don’t feel bad about crying like a baby. You are grieving a huge loss . 

Please accept my condolences.

@catlover   I’m so sorry for your loss. My Mom passed away less than 2 wks. ago. I have no siblings, but can definitely identify with the strange “all alone in the world” feeling that happens when both parents are gone. There’s nothing wrong with crying....still happening here, too. 💕

I am so sorry for your loss.  I feel for you because my mother passed away 2 weeks ago. She had been sick with Alzheimer's about 4 years and I was her caregiver.  She had been in the nursing home for 4 months and every day when I visited I cried.  My husband wonders how someone can cry every single day.  Just like you cry for your father, I cried for my mother every single day.  Yet, the day she passed away I cried until I was numb.  I honestly now thing that crying was healing. We cry for what we had, we cry for what we lost, we cry for what we will never have again.  My thought was....my mother will never feel the sun on her face this summer, she will never laugh, she will never finish my sentences............     There is nothing wrong with crying,  it meant you loved your Dad. My heart feels for you, as I am still where you are.

I am so sad for you. I fortunately still have my dad, he’s 92 but my mom died 3 years ago. Its still so hard at times. Go ahead and cry...you are a child who has lost a parent. Even at 59, that loss is incredibly hard.

@catlover  I’m so sorry to hear of your Father’s passing. It’s so hard to lose our parents. Just remember, our time on this earth is not that long and you will be with your loved ones for an eternity. I know those words don’t mean much now, but they will later on. Your Father will always be in your heart, and you can still talk to him and send him all your love, prayers, and shared thoughts. I hope you and your siblings lean on one another during this grieving period, as sharing memories, tears and even moments of laughter really help ease the pain. I’m praying for you all that the Lord takes away your pain and gives you his peace.
