Sara, so sorry for your loss, but yes there are times that it is a blessing. Lost my dad 37 years ago and still cherish him and what he taught me. I would like to share something that is so true.
Father
4 years: My Daddy can do anything.
7 years: My Dad knows a lot, a whole lot.
8 years: My Father doesn't quite know everything.
12 years: Oh well, naturally Father doesn't know everything.
14 years: Father? Hopelessly old-fashioned.
21 years: Oh that man is out of date. What did you expect.
25 years: He knows a little bit about it, but not much.
30 years: Must find out what Dad thinks about it.
35 years: A little patience, let's get Dad's meaning first.
50 years: What would Dad have thought about it?
60 years: My Dad knew literally everything.
65 years: I wish I could talk it over with Dad once more.
