Sorry for your loss blue.
My dad passed a couple of weeks back, we're cremating him tomorrow, so I feel your pain.
Stay strong and try to remember the good times.
Take care.

Condolences to you and your family .

I'm so, so sorry to hear this pal.

I wish I had the same bond with my dad like you had with yours. In December last year my dad disowned me for being gay, with mum in agreement to keep the peace and two became one.

Only recently mum has got back in touch with me telling me he may need a stent operation. I refuse to talk to him and he does the same with me, but he don't know mum has recently been phoning me. It took a while for me to forgive her, seeing he manipulated her and it really wasn't her true opinion, but with dad I just don't see any forgiveness and I don't feel any sympathy seeing he may need this operation.

Although I rather would not be grieving if he ever does die before me, I wish I had a dad like yours who was a fantastic parent, not a homophobe who keeps living, living, living and living.

Take care fellow blue and condolences to you and your family.

My Dad died a few weeks back, still haven't really taken it in, need to get away and shed a tear somewhere. Sorry about yours Doc

Sorry to hear about your Dad mate. May he rest in peace.

I hesitated before posting but I felt that it was right to do so.

My father passed away early on Friday morning. I was by his bedside and watched him slip to wherever his final destination may be.

He was a few weeks away from his 90th birthday so he had lived a life that was full and was loved by all who knew him but now he has shuffled off this mortal coil.

I just wanted to say how much I love him and I urge you all to cherish those who are close to you.

Sorry for your loss

Sorry for your loss. Sounds like he lived a good life to that age and you had a good bond.

My Dad has cancer and finds out what stage tomorrow so I’m fearing for him at moment.

I hope that it's good news. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Sending you my best wishes.

My Dad was just 6 months off his 90th when he passed last July and I held his hand as he sat in my late mum’s “chair” (his final request) whilst waiting for an ambulance.

You’ll experience a rollercoaster of emotions and it’s like being hit by a train regardless of age.

What I can say is you will come to terms with your loss, you’ll never forget, with time you’ll look back on the life of your Dad who you loved so much.

It’s great solace to know your Dad passed with you at his bedside, not just for you but him as well.

So RIP your Dad, as you say cherish the memories, which you will and we should always appreciate our close family in life itself.

Take care fella.

Thankyou. Very nice words.
I'm sorry for your loss too. I shall absolutely remember the good times, of which there were many.

My thoughts are with you @DrBlueBob ..

Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad a few years ago and even though he was a good age it was still hard to deal with. Still miss him loads and wish I could share all the recent City successes with him.
Take your time to process what has happened. You do slowly start to remember the positive times and look back some fantastic memories

My Granddad passed away in 1977 and I miss him still. It doesn't surprise me that you miss your Dad still.
