heart attack. it was so crazy...
***kinda gross so don't read if you don't wanna*** my mom walked in after work and found him laying flat on his face all purple with blood and vomit coming out of his mouth, and without even a second hesitation she started giving him cpr (he was already dead though, but she kept trying until the paramedics forced her to stop). that's love. |

Wow, I am so sorry for your tragic loss. 6 years may seem like a long time to some, but it really isn't when it comes to missing someone you loved so much.

i have 2 favorite memories of him. one was when i was learning to ride my bike. my mom INSISTED that i start out with training wheels but my dad was all pffttt
(this was before helmets and bike safety laws and all that) so he just took me and ran along side me pushing until i figured it out. good thing for him i was a
quick learner.
and the second was it must have been my freshman year in college. my mom told him to give me money for school. he asked me how much it all was gonna cost and i told him like $1,200. he gave me $1,500 and told me to have some fun with the extra and to not tell my mom he gave me the extra. i guess you had to be there but just the way he said it was so funny. |

What a sweet, beautiful picture. I lost my dad Nov 10, 2007 and just today for the first time in several months, we drove by where he used to live. Thoughts of
him popped into my head and the tears started to flow. I've been told by others that the pain never goes away, so it may be 6 years later for you but
I'm sure the saddness and pain are still there.
