His response - "Not a dime." That was so typical of him.


Folks, if your dad is still around take a moment to call and tell him you love him. Or better yet, treat him to dinner tonight if you can make it happen. I'd give anything to have just one more conversation with my dad.

Claims rep, I'm so sorry for your loss and I truly understand. I lost my dad when I was a lazy, 20 year old punk. I, like you, depended on his knowledge and wisdom. I took him for granted. He was a great man. However, your photo contains a framed consolation to our loss. Over your left shoulder appears to be a painting of Jesus giving advice to a man in his office. Since my fathers passing, I found Christ. I now depend on His wisdom and His leading. God bless.

Great post & I understand your pain. The hardest part of losing my Dad is no longer having the one person who always had my back no matter what. Can't tell you the times in the last two years that I've picked up my phone by habit to call him when I needed help or advice. Good Dads are a treasure. And it sounds like you had a wonderful one. So sorry for your loss.

I am so glad you had a good relationship with your father.

Can't take you up on the talking to or dining with mine because he passed at 56 but it's for the best - everyone around him was in very real physical danger.

I feel the same as you do. My Dad died back in 1975. I was 14 years old but still remember it like it was yesterday. Yes we were close. He was always there for my brother, sister and I. If your Dad or Mom is still alive today, call them. The older I get, the more the little things matter. If it matters to me now, I know it matters more to them. Pick up the phone and give them a call. You'll feel better for it.

My dad died when i was 21 and it will be 10 years ago in august and it still feels like yesterday. I still catch myself picking my phone up to call him and tell him about something or to vent. He was my rock. Sorry for your loss. If it wasnt for my faith and many many long prayers i would have never of made it through his passing.

Booger, great eye for detail you've got there! This pic was given to my wife by my mom and dad. Glad to hear that you trusted the Lord and made the most important decision of your life! thumbup The verse underneath the pic is Psalm 1:1.


Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

From the guy who bought your boots wink. I am glad you had a father in your life and was a mans - man.

I lived with a man, whose was my father but I never knew him. So dads reading this thread, take note on how important you are. The statistics of children without a ACTIVE father in their life is very dismal.

Girls without fathers in their lives are 2 & 1/2 times more likely to get pregnant and 53% more likely to commit suicide.

Boys without fathers in their lives are 63% more likely to run away from home and 37% more likely to use drugs.

Boys and girls without father involvement are twice as likely to drop out of school, twice as likely to go to jail and nearly four times more likely to need help for emotional or behavioral problems.

94% of saved husbands and fathers will help lead their entire family to faith in Jesus Christ.


Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
