Luhrin Daddy, Although this will be the second Father’s Day without you, this one hurts me more. You were gone for only two weeks when the first Father’s Day arrived and I was still so numb. I was so preoccupied with adjusting, with taking care of all the issues I needed to handle after your passing. Now, this year, this Father’s Day, this second Father’s Day, I openly grieve for you. I miss you so much. I remember as far back as when I was lying in my crib and you’d kiss me and tell me you love me as you were leaving for work. I’ll always remember our walks down Myrtle Avenue and then all the way back to the park . You’d push me on the swings, play with me on the see saw and then buy me ice cream from the truck! I remember uppy-downs and speebop. All the stuffed animals I’d awake to as well as the chocolate bars that Mom wasn’t too happy about! I remember all these things. And, as I think about these fun, sweet and happy times, I wipe away my tears and try to keep smiling. You did everything for me. You loved me always, like there was no tomorrow, so that now, I may have all of these pleasant memories to comfort me when I want so badly to cry uncontrollably and give up on everything. On this Father’s Day, I grieve for you, but I can also laugh as I remember all of the times in between -The Dash-! Those are the times that matter. I thank you for loving me, protecting me and giving me all I ever needed and more. You truly treated me like “Daddy’s Princess”. Happy Father’s Day in Heaven. Love and Kisses, Jenny xxxxx
