That was very touching. The three people who disliked this video can go acquaint their posteriors with a rake.

I'm sorry for your loss Lar. I was touched by your story and I enjoyed listening to your fond memory's. I lost my father a couple of year's ago and this helps me to remember and appreciate what he gave me in life. Thank you.

This is a very touching video, made me tear up. Your father sounds like he was a great person and a wonderful father, and watching this gave me some insight into how that much feel, to have had such a close bond. The loss of something wonderful is always profound, but it sounds like you're remembering to find joy in the fact that you had it. Anyway, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings.

Very touching recount, Lar. I lost my dad when I was 9, and cried like a baby for days, and I can imagine that'd I'd do the same if it were now at the age of 31. Stay strong, and keep on keepin' on.

I am very sorry for your loss Lar, I hope that your days do eventually get brighter and that the pain will dull eventually. Hope you and your family are well, outside of the obvious loss. May your days be merry.

Dear Lar

Thank you for sharing. I read and enjoy your comics every day. (I am Norwegian, you have a wide reach.) They always brighten my day if I am down. I am an atheist, but am very happy that you are at terms with your dad and your god. My condolances and well-wishes.

Trond.
