25 years ago today (September 28), my dad passed away after a long illness. He had been non-responsive for about a week, so it wasn't as though we could converse with him, but I think he heard us. I still miss him a lot, and can remember his voice, his mannerisms, but mostly his love. I've never been visited by him, and have only rarely, if ever, dreamed of him, but I was a Daddy's girl and we were very close.....love you Daddy.

I miss my dad a lot. He was a kind, gentle, loving man. He passed eighteen years ago.

I miss my daddy like crazy too. It has been 10 1/2 years. He also was a kind man. I sure hope I get to see him again. If my husband's first brush with death is any indication, I will.

I'm so sorry. Tomorrow is 28 years since my Mom passed. The sadness never ends.

Anniversaries of losses are hard.

No, it doesn't. It just becomes normal to be sad. It'll be 33 years in January that my mom passed. I always get sad at the anniversary of her passing.

Like birthdays and happy anniversaries, the days we lost our loved ones are remembered just as clearly...

Everyone here has my sincerest empathy. October 5 will mark the 29th anniversary of my father's death. He died from Brain Cancer when I was 18. I'd perhaps have had an easier time accepting it were it not for the fact I have no real relationship with my mother and haven't had one since about 1983.

I'm sorry to hear that your relationship with your mom isn't good. That does make it harder when you've lost a parent you're close to. Almost like losing both your parents. My sympathies.
