One of my favorite childhood memories was a huge Western Flyer he bought for me and it was so big I had to set the bicycle in street and get on the curb in order to climb on to it, but I loved that bicycle and I loved my Dad.

Personal experience -
The loss of my dad was really hard. BUT - the day of his funeral (and since) I've felt that his death wasn't the last time I'd see dad. I can't explain it - I just know I'm right. Call it intuition or faith - call it whatever - I'll see dad again as well as the friends I've buried (and theres been too many). Logically it makes no sense but SPIRITUALLY it does.
We don't just float away folks........that's not how it works - I'm confident of that. |

Faith also = hope
We can live without many things but hope isn't one of them......water , food and *** being the others <g>
Oh.....and toilet paper!
Sorry......just trying to lighten the mood |
