@Jemmaxox95 Oh my gosh...I was just listening and read your post and started crying. I am so very sorry for your loss...such a young age to lose a parent...God bless you!
My dad is slowly dying, i know it, but he doesnt talk to me and ive told him how much i love him and how much he means to me, but he doesnt speak to me because i am a failure and havent lived up to his expectations. It guts me and rips my heart out, and i cry myself to sleep so many nights. I dont know why he wont realise that i am part of him.
My Father lived in England I lived in Australia. I promised to visit with his two Grand kids, but
didn't know when and kept putting off.
I returned from work one day to the news, that my Dad was dead.
I dropped everything and returned home to comfort my Mother.
The saddest day of my life was when I visited the funeral parlour to see my Father in his coffin, I placed two photographs on his chest, his Grandson and his Granddaughter.
Don't put off visit him and tell him you love him.
@r73Steve... Bless you darlin that was so touching what you said, this song always makes me tearful when i listen to it. It makes me think of my grandfather who passed away when i was a teenager and rarely visited him when he was alive.
EgefalikoEggramo, you are probably already quite the man. However: if you post a youtube video, especially with an awesome song such as this, i implore you to sync the lyrics with the song, it cannot be that difficult or can it?
I'm a grown ass man and this is the only song that literally makes me cry every time I listen to it. It's a very emotional song for me to listen to, because my father and I never had a good relationship between us. He was very mean and tried to make amends when he found out he had terminal cancer. I was 24 at the time my father died. I was in basic training when he succumbed to liver cancer. I never did get to tell him how I truly felt nor did I get to tell him that I loved him as a father.
I lost my Dad when I was only 17 to cancer. Though I had a good relationship with him it bothers me to this day and it's been 40 years since his passing that I didn't get to say good bye and how much I loved him.
This is the best song ever! You can learn from it, because when you parents or a beloved person dies, then you now what you lost! But then its to late!!
i love this song, but it always makes me cry cause it always reminds me of my grandparents ... my grandad is 89 and im really starting to worry that he'll pass away soon ='(
Dedicated 2my Dad, 9/02/43-2/27/07 64, father of 2, grandfather of 9 married 45yrs, killed in a head-on by a 77yo woman who crossed into his lane on a hi-way. Haven't seen him since mom hated my 1st marriage and disowned me from the family 25yr ago, not that she approved of ANYTHING I did though. A quiet guy, lived a perfect clean life, totally loyal. Worked 6am-6pm. last spoke some 13yrs ago. Mom soured his attitude. Now Mom is alone. I miss him. Also Phil Collins "No Son of Mine" applies.
My grandad has been wanting to speak to my dad for over 6 months now, he never has gotten to call him, so earlier tonight, I put him in his shoes, I said "How would you like it if I moved out and didn't call/talk to you", for some reason, he looked a bit upset, I just hope he calls him.
Look after, love and care for your parent(s), son(s), daughter(s) and family. And when the time comes, think of the good times you had!
Now we have 3 children, our little girl is two years old. I think, that he would be the happiest person on earth if he was with them... But he is not.. We lost him in December 2006, but I think of him every single day... I wish my children knew him and spent time with him, we would have been a great granddaddy... This song always makes me remember my father and, of course, makes me cry...
I feel I had a special bond with my father. I think, that my first son, his first grandchild was the best gift he ever had. He was chronically ill and because I lived in another country, I would try to visit him as often as I could (few times a year). Last time I visited was 10 day before I had my second son. He passed away 2 week after my second son was born, he never saw him. I couldn't even go to the funeral, couldn't leave the newborn. My husband went instead.
its been 1 month daddy and this song says it all ..... you knew you could count on me if i ever needed anything but our family tore us apart and i never got to tell you all the things i had to say xxxxx i loved you so much and still do xxxxxx rip daddy see you again one day
My son was young, when his grandfather passed away, but Michael would have been the center of his life... he was when he was very young, there is nothing like the love of his Grandfather, i remember seeing the love between them too. what a relationship they had.... but he died when he was only 5 years old... he receives his memories, and the best of his Love!!!! He will never ever forget U
For my Father...it's been 7 years since you were taken from me and went to live with God. I hope you know that I loved you and that I looked up to you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you and what you meant to me. You never made me feel like I wasn't yours because we weren't blood. You were and always be my Daddy. Blood doesn't make a Father, being their and caring for me did. I love and miss you
I just read the obituary of my best friend's brother today. They had a falling out two years ago after the death of their mother. She left her daughter her earthly possessions and he was upset. They never cleared the air, and the obit never mentioned she was all he had left of family. So sad. I never want to leave this earth over something so trivial, or knowing we don't see eye to eye:(( Say it loud, say it in the living years.
Its my fathers funeral later today ...i grew up without seeing him ..i'm 46 now ...and now its too late.
If your a father -be a father ...and if your a son ..maybe you need to forgive too .
We recently reconnected ...i am thankfull for that ..he told me that this song dredged up some emotions for him ...i didnt even realise how much i was hurting ...and there was always next week - well NO..its gone . Dont leave it unsettled if you are in a likewise situation ..be bold and
My dad passed away when I was 2 months pregnant with his first grandchild.....never got to tell him....a short while later this song came out, almost like a message from above. I miss him soooo to this day!! The child I was pregnant with was a son, and I named him Joe after my dad, he is now a 27 year old man - and I know my dad would be so proud.....
I was out camping with my dad once and as we were setting up the tent, this song song came on the radio. After it was over there was a tear in his eye and he said that this song reminds him of his Dad who died 6 weeks after my birth. I was too young at the time to understand the song and what my Dad said but now that I'm older it makes perfect sense. I know we get in fights sometimes but Dad, I love you.
If I could just have my father back, even for just one hour, i would never ask for anything again in my life. But he's gone, and this song is all i have to remember him by. I love you, Dad.
my dad was old fasioned but one day he told me how proud he was of me and I will never forget he had a great sence of humour like my son now I have all ways told him I am proud of him and I love him but found it hard to say to my dad
Tell you father today, as tomorrow he may not be there, and he won t one day. Don t take your family, parents for granted. Tell them you love them today as tomorrow will be too late and you will be saying to yourself, I should have......
Aww all of these comments are beautiful,,I always loved this song ,,i still have my dad around,,but lost my step dad that was like a dad to me,,and this song reminds me of him..so here's to all our wonderful dads ..love Marsha!
Losing a loved one is always painfull and difficult , a part of life ....it brings shock , grief , and sometimes depression and denial..but it needs to be accepted at all costs .....
This song has always been very dear to me as it reminds me of my father .I lost him as a teenager , himself a very young man ....This song inspires ''release '' for me to let go of the pain ..... Always express your feelings , never castigate yourself with '' if only'' ......
My father died on New Year's Eve 1996. I miss him dearly. I wish I could talk to him about all the turmoil in the world. This song always reminds me of him.
My reaction to posts... Sunshine: My Father died on Thanksgiving of 2000. Em was born on 11/14/2000, two weeks before he passed. My daughter's birthday is the day after mine. The only meaningful gift my ex ever gave me, and my little girl owns me. Lillie: a terrible thing to have happen to a child... Have hope, not all fathers are like this. My ex has pulled every dirty trick and almost took her from me. I choose Em before myself, despite... everything.
my reaction to this song?? Brill talent! Everyone has this song to make them feel better about things or make them think about there father that passed away....either or u fuckers that want to bitch and moan about other peoples comment... this songs gets people through alot or makes them re think things..let me people do that..... this song has a lot of meaning.. for fuck sake! music is meant to bring people & situations together.... End of!
Right after my father passed away, they'd play this song on the radio alot, Coincidence or Fate, don't know but it fit right into my broken heart. To live your life in sorrow & pain is so sad, and my father lost his 10 year old daughter ( my sister) I was just 4 months old. He stopped showing love or affection to his other kids. " We knew he loved us, he was big and strong and very protective of us, but a hug was something I never remember getting from my father." Major heart Damage, "
Gene, apesar de que nunca me demostraste tu amor, yo no se si fue Dios quien puso esto en mi, ojala te pueda llorar el dia de tu partida con un amor genuino, me hubiera gustado escuchar el por que de tu frialdad hacia nosotros cuando ninos y estoy seguro a mis hermanos también,
lo unico que lamento es que pudiste ser inmensamente rico, con todo el amor de tus hijos,
@23skeedoo You are right. But unfortunately we take our parents, family for granted, thinking they will be around forever. And for sure they would like to hear it from you. I m trying to pass this around. I ve been there, done that. Learned from my mistakes.
Almost reads like a plea to stop listen and learn to the world. Stop fighting and let's talk it over before it's too late like not telling his father that he loved him. Time to drop the guns and take a seat at the big table and hash it all out. Does that make any sense?
i never heard an i love you from my dad that i can remember, and i never remember saying it to him, it was a given. i just pray he knows how much i loved him now that he's gone<3.
I WAS IN 6TH GRADE & IT WAS THE 1ST DAY MY DAD DROVE ME 2 SCHOOL IN A FEW MONTHS. AS HE DROVE ME HE SPILLED OUT THAT HE HAD SOMETHING TO SHARE WITH ME. I WAS BRIGHTEYED & EXCITED & HE TOLD ME THAT THIS SONG REMINDED HIM OF HIS DAD AND I, I LISTENED EVEN THOU I WAS TIRED. AFTER THE SONG HE WAS IN TEARS WHICH BTW WAS THE FIRST TIME I SEEN MY DAD CRY, I ALSO. HE THEN EXPLAINED TO ME THAT HIS DAD DIED & THANKSGIVING 9MONTHS LATER I WAS BORN, HE SAID I DIDNT GET TO TELL HIM, UR TEARS TOLD ME HE KNEW
@LOVINGSUNSHINESSMILE Love your dad, for certain reasons, I don't have a relationship with my dad. he is 82, I'm afraid he will die and I will never get to say what I have to say....
@TheMiamimari Don't wait for the inevitable, you will regret it for the rest of your days. You owe it to yourself to get this sorted. Tell him what you have got to say and enjoy the time left together. Make it right this Christmas.
@LOVINGSUNSHINESSMILE STRANGE BUT THE SAME THING THAT HAPPENED WITH YOUR DAD HAS HAPPENED WITH ME.WHEN MY DAD PASSED AWAY I WAS ALSO NOT ABLE TO SEE HIM AS I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL DUE TO COMPLICATIONS AS I WAS EXPECTING MY SON WHEN I GOT THE NEWS OF MY DAD'S PASSING&THEN 6 MONTHS LATER I HAD MY SON&HE HAS A VERY SEVERE GENETIC DISORDER&ALL THE PAIN I CAUSED MY FATHER I CAN NOW FEEL IT AS A MOTHER.HOW DO YOU FEEL WHEN YOUR KIDS ARE IN TROUBLE.I'M AMAZED OUR STORIES SO SIMILAR
@LOVINGSUNSHINESSMILE I can relate to it. I lose it when I hear this song, I had argued with dad the day before he died, and it was the last words I said to him. And at Xmas it's hard when thinking of him.
My dad les Herbert loved this song, he sadly passed away only 2 months after my son mitchell was born his first grandson, this was played at his funeral, and 9 years on i still miss him and always will, i shed a tear when ever i here this song, such a emotional song with such true touching words, miss you dad always’s
my dad died in 2006 but i never had contact with him my dad didnt love me thats why i went to live in devon but i wish now that i had had answers from my dad
My DAD died @56 of a stroke... I just turned 55 and I am close with my son by 3000 miles.... but my daughter seems to have written me off and it hurts me more than anyone can know, oh well?...tbear
this song pulls on my heart strings, cos in my younger yrs i was very close to my dad, but the yr b4 he passed away we had a fall out, and i never really made peace with him,so every word of this song tells my story, i have to live each day riddled wiv guilt, cos i was just as stuborn as he was, i should have bn more persistant and push to sort it out b4 it was too late xx
This is an incredible song but the same should be said to father's who have abandoned a child. It does not matter if things did not work out with the mother but the child is innocent. Sometimes the child will not ever hear an I love you from their father & it may mark them for life so guys if you have a child out there look for them make contact with them.
@Lillie2420 I can relate to it. I lose it when I hear this song, I had argued with dad the day before he died, and it was the last words I said to him. And at Xmas it's hard when thinking of him.
@Lillie2420 Yes, I agree.... my daughter's father abandoned her. And he blamed my father as one of the reasons. Now my father is dying & my ex still wants nothing to do with his daughter - I could care less if he loves me anymore but our 20 month old little girl is 100% innocent. Lets just pray for those men who have not found the light!! Thank you:)
I pray for them to stay around forever, but I know that wont happen, I at least want them to be there for along while. I am 12 btw I love my mom and dad so much! we are kinda poor, but I dont care, I just want to be with them until the time runs out! my mom is pregnant with baby 11 we dont know if its a girl or boy yet, but I have kidney problems my lil brother who just turned 1 has hirshsprungs diasease, and my oldest brother has ADHD, I need prayers for my family to cause my mom is going
So was my mom and dad, they were there to they always let grandpa visit me in the hospital after all my surgerys, I have kidney problems that is the only reason why I am saying surgerys, But when I am feeling so lost with out my grandpa I listen to this, cause my dad is awesome beyond awesome, my moms dad is gone, and she is so hurt when we dont respect our dad she told me to enjoy the time with him befor its to late, and I am doing that I tell him I love him and my mom every day/night I pray
I am going to try my best to spend more time with my dad, we have now 11 kids all related same father, and my dad and my mom are trying so hard to make sure all there love gets to all of us! I appreciate them and I look up to them, I always will! my mom's dad died a few years ago, they were mad at each other she is still so hurt she listens to this song but I am hurt to I am the only one who cant get over it. I was friends with my grandpa and he is gone now, he was there for me so was
if theres one thing my dad thought me its always look on the bright side of life even though its hard sometimes you only have one family tell them how you feel before its too late
Very sad lost my dad but i was not there that moring but we were with each other for 20 years working together a man of great wisdom i try now to pass this on to my son
Me and my dad have never really seen eye to eye and despite all the spats and arguements, i love him and he knows he loves me no matter what and i treasure all the time i have with him...
I wasn't there that morning when MY father passed away...but I said goodbye before he slipped into a coma and consequently life support in which the plug was pulled eventually by the doctors without notice. My father was my best friend just like I'm my son's best friend. This beautiful song conjures up my memories of my father.
The Human condition. Whatever year you play this song, Whatever generation listens to it, it will still have eyes welling up with tears. This song was the mortar and stone that I used to Bridge the generation gap with my parents. I miss you Mom, and I do see your loving influence in my son's eyes
This song has made me think of both my mom and dad....we are certainly of different generations and they make it very clear, resulting in arguements, hangups, and tears. I always call back and apologize, but it never seems enough....I wish I could do so much more for the heartache Ive caused them, from DUIs and running w/bad ppl. They're now both very ill and I feel so trapped and terrified cuz I want them to go peacefully, w/out worry of my wellbeing, when the time comes....
I lost my dad two years ago in September. This song hits so close to home. I miss him everyday. It's still hard to believe he's not here. He died of lung and liver cancer. My dad and I didn't always get along. There were a lot of things he did that I didn't approve of or agree with, but he was my dad and I loved him. He loved me and tried to give me everything he didn't have growing up. He made a lot of mistakes but I was the one good thing he did in his life. I will tell my children about him.
20 years ago my father was killed by a drunk driver and still hurts so much!!! I miss him. I never told him that I loved him, but I new he loved me very much. My son is 20 years old and he was born 2 months after his death. My dad was so happy with the coming of his first grandson. My son and daughter were robbed of the opportunity of being loved by a great human being. Dad I' m sorry !! I love !! you !!

Never knew my biological father and wasn't overly close with my stepdad, even though I miss him dearly. But this song speaks to me of my uncle who died in a house fire trying to save his grandson. My uncle was almost like a big brother. I remember when I left home, he was the last person I visited before I left town. That hug lasted so long. What sucks is I fell asleep the afternoon before he died and planned on calling him. Next morning I was robbed of that chance. Wish I had one more day. RIP
@beef50677 Please don't have regrets. Regret just takes the shine out of the picture you do or should have in your mind. Remember them with happiness, love and maybe even a little sadness. But not regret. :)
My father passed away and he and i never got to say our goodbyes he never knew how much i did love him and i live with that quilt and regret for the rest of my life thank goodness when my mom passed away we had that chance to say we loved each other and i was able to let her know it was OK to go and she passed away the next day it still hurts she is gone she was my best friend
Amazing . . . this is definitely not my kinda genre, but I was always moved by this track. It's so virtuous, and at the same time the vocals and instrumentation are POWERFUL, making this a soft rock classic by any standard, amirite? It's been so long since I heard this (had it on my hard drive but it got corrupted and I haven't reacquired it) and the convenience of peeping it on YouTube (in 480p) really made my day. B-)
My dad died when I was 5, I have no memory of him but see his face in my 2 sons. He had 5 children when he died of leukaemia, it must have broken his heart to say goodbye knowing me and my little sister didn't understand we would never know him. I would give anything just to tell him I loved him so I love his grand children instead. XXXXXXXX
Wish I could say I love my father, but I can't. He was a doctor who had his family planned out. My older brother was to be the doctor and my younger sister was to marry a wealthy businessman. Took brother 16 years to barely make it through father pulling strings....brother is now a unemployed loser living off daddy at 51 years old.........sister is a 47 year old divorcee supported by daddy. I have a loving wife and kids, and truly blessed......PARENTS DONT SHOW FAVORITISM..IT WILL HAUNT YOU
This hurts as my father and i have no relationship. I try to keep the loving relationship wiht my 3 sons so they can remember the living years. Dman it - why didn't he accept me as me and not what he wanted? I am not a preacher but a great guy that loves his family and provides well
All I ask to please, NO MATTER THE SITUATION, let you Father, Mother, Brother, Sister.... No matter who... Let them know you love them. Me and my Father had our problems then I moved 1200 miles away then he passed away. Believe me I regret every moment I didn't tell him how much I loved him!
This was my brothers favorite song, for when my dad passed away, Now my brother is gone and Iam listening too this crying like a fucking baby, miss you guys
MTD45 I hope you see this Please don't wait until something happens & it is too late to set things right, find the right words & write him a letter & tell him how much his love support & guidance has meant to you over the years most folks don't realize how much the weight simple words can carry & how much they can mean & if for some reason he is still unwilling to talk you can know in your heart that you tried to make things better between you.
I was a Daddys girl We had a large family I loved my daddy very much last 5 years of his life. he was bed ridden my sister and I had the privaledge of caring for him. Daily even though we both had full time obligations to our families. My sister caring for her husband with cancer who died 5 mo after my father. and me working full time a single parent of 2 teenage sons. going home late. Then getting up early to start another day. I have no regrets. I love you Daddy!
These lyrics are so relevant to me. My dad died in 1998, I lived 130 miles away, and when I got the call from my mum I drove straight over and this song came on the radio, and I was driving up the motorway with tears rolling down my face. We never saw eye to eye, due to the generation gap, but I found out when it was too late that he was very proud of me (from people at the funeral) but he never told me himself. He never got to see his grand daughter, who was born 4 months later
My Dad is suffering from advanced Alzheimers. Before he got bad, he was in an assisted living facility, and while visiting him one day, we were talking. He was never very expressive when he suddenly starting talking about what a good job I had done raising my kids, and what a good father I had become. A truly precious moment, it was eery, almost like he had a premonition, 3 weeks later, he started slipping away and could never communicate well again. I'll always remember that moment - chills
when my dad died in 2001, i was told at work he passed away, this song was on the radio while i was coming home, so sad but true these lyrics...i still get chocked up these days hearing this great song!!!
My Dad died in 1984, and he never saw the person I became. I always hpoe he would be proud of me and overlook the pain in the ass I was in my late teens and early 20's. My son was born in 1992, and I tried to use a lot of what I learned from my father, good and bad, to raise him right. I hope he's proud of me and I miss him a lot.
My brother in law raised me as a father,We had a bigtime falling out over something I dont even recall,Ive tried to talk to him just to let him know how much he means to me,he is getting old and so am I,I hope that before Its to late that he will talk to me so I can thank him for filling the void of not having a father,I hope he somehow reads this,I love you Reeves,You were a perfect role model,Please dont die without letting me tell you how much you mean to me.So many have gone and dont know.
My father didnt let me know he was my father untill he was dying,His explanation was that when my moma died when I was 11 years old,he said he tried to take me from my sister;s and they didnt want him to take me,Im glad he didnt get me but after meeting him at 30 years old He tried to make up for lost time,I hold no grudge against him,as a matter of fact he dies within 2 years of us knowing each other,I let him know that nomatter what he was my father and I loved him,we didnt have much time.
Lost my Daddy 2 years ago....he had gone into a coma from a massive hemoragic stroke....saw him the day it happened, coma the next day, 4 days later he was gone :( but Momma, my sister and myself were with him when he went....it hurts still and there are days you wished you were able to just feel him give you a hug, and you know that's gotta wait until it's my time....you'll always love and miss them...if you've still got your parents, let them know how much you love them....

My grandad has been wanting to speak to my dad for over 6 months now, he never has gotten to call him, so earlier tonight, I put him in his shoes, I said "How would you like it if I moved out and didn't call/talk to you", for some reason, he looked a bit upset, I just hope he calls him.
Look after, love and care for your parent(s), son(s), daughter(s) and family. And when the time comes, think of the good times you had!

Now we have 3 children, our little girl is two years old. I think, that he would be the happiest person on earth if he was with them... But he is not.. We lost him in December 2006, but I think of him every single day... I wish my children knew him and spent time with him, we would have been a great granddaddy... This song always makes me remember my father and, of course, makes me cry...

I feel I had a special bond with my father. I think, that my first son, his first grandchild was the best gift he ever had. He was chronically ill and because I lived in another country, I would try to visit him as often as I could (few times a year). Last time I visited was 10 day before I had my second son. He passed away 2 week after my second son was born, he never saw him. I couldn't even go to the funeral, couldn't leave the newborn. My husband went instead.

My son was young, when his grandfather passed away, but Michael would have been the center of his life... he was when he was very young, there is nothing like the love of his Grandfather, i remember seeing the love between them too. what a relationship they had.... but he died when he was only 5 years old... he receives his memories, and the best of his Love!!!! He will never ever forget U

For my Father...it's been 7 years since you were taken from me and went to live with God. I hope you know that I loved you and that I looked up to you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you and what you meant to me. You never made me feel like I wasn't yours because we weren't blood. You were and always be my Daddy. Blood doesn't make a Father, being their and caring for me did. I love and miss you

I just read the obituary of my best friend's brother today. They had a falling out two years ago after the death of their mother. She left her daughter her earthly possessions and he was upset. They never cleared the air, and the obit never mentioned she was all he had left of family. So sad. I never want to leave this earth over something so trivial, or knowing we don't see eye to eye:(( Say it loud, say it in the living years.

I was out camping with my dad once and as we were setting up the tent, this song song came on the radio. After it was over there was a tear in his eye and he said that this song reminds him of his Dad who died 6 weeks after my birth. I was too young at the time to understand the song and what my Dad said but now that I'm older it makes perfect sense. I know we get in fights sometimes but Dad, I love you.

Losing a loved one is always painfull and difficult , a part of life ....it brings shock , grief , and sometimes depression and denial..but it needs to be accepted at all costs .....
This song has always been very dear to me as it reminds me of my father .I lost him as a teenager , himself a very young man ....This song inspires ''release '' for me to let go of the pain ..... Always express your feelings , never castigate yourself with '' if only'' ......

The only meaningful gift my ex ever gave me, and my little girl owns me. Lillie: a terrible thing to have happen to a child... Have hope, not all fathers are like this. My ex has pulled every dirty trick and almost took her from me. I choose Em before myself, despite... everything.

Right after my father passed away, they'd play this song on the radio alot, Coincidence or Fate, don't know but it fit right into my broken heart. To live your life in sorrow & pain is so sad, and my father lost his 10 year old daughter ( my sister) I was just 4 months old. He stopped showing love or affection to his other kids. " We knew he loved us, he was big and strong and very protective of us, but a hug was something I never remember getting from my father." Major heart Damage, "

This is an incredible song but the same should be said to father's who have abandoned a child. It does not matter if things did not work out with the mother but the child is innocent. Sometimes the child will not ever hear an I love you from their father & it may mark them for life so guys if you have a child out there look for them make contact with them.

I lost my dad two years ago in September. This song hits so close to home. I miss him everyday. It's still hard to believe he's not here. He died of lung and liver cancer. My dad and I didn't always get along. There were a lot of things he did that I didn't approve of or agree with, but he was my dad and I loved him. He loved me and tried to give me everything he didn't have growing up. He made a lot of mistakes but I was the one good thing he did in his life. I will tell my children about him.

Never knew my biological father and wasn't overly close with my stepdad, even though I miss him dearly. But this song speaks to me of my uncle who died in a house fire trying to save his grandson. My uncle was almost like a big brother. I remember when I left home, he was the last person I visited before I left town. That hug lasted so long. What sucks is I fell asleep the afternoon before he died and planned on calling him. Next morning I was robbed of that chance. Wish I had one more day. RIP

We never saw eye to eye, due to the generation gap, but I found out when it was too late that he was very proud of me (from people at the funeral) but he never told me himself. He never got to see his grand daughter, who was born 4 months later

My Dad is suffering from advanced Alzheimers. Before he got bad, he was in an assisted living facility, and while visiting him one day, we were talking. He was never very expressive when he suddenly starting talking about what a good job I had done raising my kids, and what a good father I had become. A truly precious moment, it was eery, almost like he had a premonition, 3 weeks later, he started slipping away and could never communicate well again. I'll always remember that moment - chills

My Dad died in 1984, and he never saw the person I became. I always hpoe he would be proud of me and overlook the pain in the ass I was in my late teens and early 20's. My son was born in 1992, and I tried to use a lot of what I learned from my father, good and bad, to raise him right. I hope he's proud of me and I miss him a lot.

My brother in law raised me as a father,We had a bigtime falling out over something I dont even recall,Ive tried to talk to him just to let him know how much he means to me,he is getting old and so am I,I hope that before Its to late that he will talk to me so I can thank him for filling the void of not having a father,I hope he somehow reads this,I love you Reeves,You were a perfect role model,Please dont die without letting me tell you how much you mean to me.So many have gone and dont know.

My father didnt let me know he was my father untill he was dying,His explanation was that when my moma died when I was 11 years old,he said he tried to take me from my sister;s and they didnt want him to take me,Im glad he didnt get me but after meeting him at 30 years old He tried to make up for lost time,I hold no grudge against him,as a matter of fact he dies within 2 years of us knowing each other,I let him know that nomatter what he was my father and I loved him,we didnt have much time.
