Answer 2

Dear Daddy


Dear Daddy when I was a little girl
you made me feel special like your special girl
when I disappointed you I lost that feeling
Dear Daddy now I know that what’s begun is the healing

Dear Daddy my heart is filled with so many mixed emotions
there was a time when I had those
Silly fairytale notions

Dear Daddy I can not know what life would be without you
sometimes I think that you forget your moonbeam
I may be older but a girl needs her Daddy even at 42

Dear Daddy life is short our loved one’s should know how we feel
We must never wait
Until it’s too late
And at the coffin we say it as we kneel

Dear Daddy what can I say to make you understand a daughter’s love
No matter how many sons you have it’s different and rises above

Dear Daddy although there are times when we did not see eye to eye
Deep down in my soul you are my number one guy

Dear Daddy please take care of yourself now that you’re old
What comes around goes around is what I was told

Now your children are the parents and in a way you are the child
If anything should ever happen to you crazy is not the word
I would go wild

Lose my mind
Lose my gifted man
The one who everyone says I look like
Is that something that you’ve heard

Dear Daddy
Please do not go nowhere too soon
Remember about our special thing
Rising up in the sky when the beams shine bright from the moon

You are like a light to me
I have a Father in heaven and on earth
I only hope that you understand Dear Daddy
Just how much you are worth

Gifts are given by the Father in Heaven I know
However, on earth is where I can demonstrate and show
Dear Daddy, Dear Daddy, Dear Daddy, I love you so


Does that answer your question?

Answer 3

All the time!
My Dad past away 3 years ago.
I was still coping with the loss of a 4 year old grandson and it was very difficult! When my grandson died my dad got in His car and came to my home, That meant a lot to me, since he was very sick Himself. He had cancer.
He was a very good man and He taught me well. I will never forget Him,
He was stern with what He believed but sweeter than most people could hope to be. He would do without anything he had if He thought you wanted it. He loved people and loved to talk and He loved Jordan ( my grandson) so much.
I have a picture of Him kneeling in front Jordan at his last Birthday party and it is such a sweet picture. You could see the compassion in His eyes for Him. At Dad's funeral the director said they had not ever been so overwhelmed with so many flowers and the there were so many great things said about Him being so trust worthy.
One business man said they had never had a written contract.
They just shook hands and He said He knew that was all He needed because He knew He could trust whatever my Dad said.
I love him so much and miss Him and Jordan terribly.

Answer 4

My daddy died 21 years ago when I was just 6 years old. There is not one day that I dont think, talk about or even talk to him. I was so young and have only a few good memories of him, (my parents divorsed when I was one, and we lived many states away.) Every birthday of his, I send a happy birtday balloon in the sky, the anniversary of his death I sit and remember and still ask god why. The hardest part for me is fathers day of course. I have two kids of my own, and their woundering minds always ask questions about my daddy. It hurts to know I will never see him again, but I know deep down he is right here with me. I think thinking about him everyday is a darn good thing. Its even to the point when I am tempted to do something I shouldnt, the first words out of my mouth are, my dad would kill me!!!! Sorry for your loss, their are no words to describe losing/growing up without a parent.

Answer 5

My dad passed when I was 9, I think often about all the things he missed seeing me do (like getting married and having 2 kids) And I feel sad that he couldn't be there for me during those times, But I thank God for giving me the times we did have together and for the times he was gone. If he hadn't left me a such an early age I would not be the person I am today.

Answer 6

As kids, my Mom and Dad were divorced. I was always close to my Dad, but didn't see him as much as I would have liked. Time went by and I grew up and moved away to a different state. I hadn't talked to my Dad for years, when one day I justs felt the time was right to send him a letter. I wrote that letter telling him about the person I had become and about his grandchildren. He got the letter just days before he, unbeknowst to me, died. I am so happy I wrote that letter telling him that I love him. Now I think of him almost on a daily basis...and wish I would have done things differently. : (

Answer 7

I think of mine almost every other day - mostly triggered by a song, someone who looks like him on the street, a certain dish, his favorite Nescafe. It's good to cherish and remember the ones who left us - oh, and I light a candle on his birthdays and his anniversaries.

Answer 8

my mom died when i was five so all i had was my dad until i was 12 he was a diciplinarian but he spoiled me rotten i miss him every time something goes wrong in my life but i move on he died in my sisters arms when she was fifteen he was teaching her how to drive at the time in 1985 he was choking on his own vomit and she did'nt know you have to keep going but keep everything he taught you close and be proud of his memory but you will always wonder about how it would be if he was still here thats life i am 35 now and it feels like a few years ago

Answer 9

It's great that you have great memories.My dad has been gone two years and I feel much better because he was a bad person.He molested many people including myself.I did take care of him the last 6 months of his life.I did every thing that I could do.I feel much for at peace.

Answer 10

All the time, my dad has been gone for 16 years now and missed so much in my life- me getting my DL, graduating from high school, graduating from College, my son's birth... my only hope and wish is that I am still here to watch my son experience all those things and more... and my one wish for my son's father is that he gets to experience one moment in his life of the joy that I get to experience everyday with my son

Answer 11

My Father passed away 14th September 1998 - 7:00 am.
I was at his feet when he took his last breath...
Can't say much at this moment in time..:-(

Almost 9 years since my dad's been physically gone; just 5
