This day is the one year anniversary of my fathers death. I Know and still feel the pain from losing him. Some people may say that the pain will fade with time, from experience I need to say there wrong. Everytime I do or say something, I remember what my father would say or do. It hurts the most when you can never find closure, with your husband or dad, and my father. All I can say is that when it gets tough and you feel like you cant survive without him, remember to hold on, because your husband/father wouldn't want you to punish yourself. The last day of school I went home, my dad was there smiling and laughing, telling me that you made it, your whole life is right in front of you. A week before my graduation he died. I went to the graduation ceremony, depressed crying sad, when I got there all of my graduating class had black armbands on their wrists, most with tears in their eyes. I started balling my eyes out, along with most with my family, they all came to the funeral. The point is to never underestimate the power of your friends/family ability to help you with moving along with your life. I wish I could take away your pain, like I wish I could take away my own pain.
I know that it might not help but, I'll hope and pray for your peace of mind and body through the rough times now and ahead.

Very sincerly, Jon finney
