Ahh. Thread made me tear up a bit.

Our thoughts are with you.

I'm so sorry. 🙁 Did you find out what happened to him?

Also, you look very much like him, take comfort in that.
 
Have arrangements been made? Is there anything, in terms of organizing, that us members can help you with?
 
I'm sorry for your loss.

suicide always leaves unanswered questions, a friend of mine took his own life recently as well 🙁

Suicide? Where did you get that?

My father passed 13 years ago and it was one of the toughest things I have ever dealt with. A day does not pass that I do not think of him and all that he gave to me. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
 
damn...only 5 years older than me...

My condolences for your loss. I remember getting the call when my dad died. That was tough enough...finding him face down like that would be much worse.

As others have said, remember the good times (as well as the bad) and he'll live on forever in your memories.

Life can come at you in unexpected ways. Today I lost my father, we worked together, I confided in him, he gave me direction in life. And now he is gone. Gone forever. And I am still in denial somewhat I think. I mean I was with him LAST NIGHT. Today he didn't show up to work, he didnt anwswer his phone or cell, I cut out of work to check on him... .. . and .. horrible was the situation upon my eyes fell.

He we face down, hands cold and purple, nose looked broken. I flipped him over to do cpr, .. . to a tensed up lifeless shell of a man. A man that was(still is)my hero, and why he had to go. I dont understand. I just had a NEW baby, he so very much loved. We had plans for the future, the recent days have been so grand.

SO HERE are some and most recent photos from him in the hospital seeing the baby. He was so happy. Our relationship had developed so good, and why I couldnt have been there to try and help/stop this from happening.. ..

anyhoo, please look at these pictures of my father at his happiest

a happy new grandad

me, dad and new baby Zach

R.I.P. Dad, I forgot to tell you how I love you very much.

you will be remembered forever, but why you left so quickly I will never understand. 🙁

btw, its photobucket, bbzzdd was not letting me load them.

Look at it this way, at least he got to see the baby and hold the baby. my father died 2 months before his twin grandsons were to be born. I'll never forget him calling my brother and apologizing for not being able to be there for his son's births. (He had been given a grim prognosis and knew he wouldn't be here for much longer.)

I sympathize with you and your loss, but if there is a lesson to be learned it's to TELL PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE THEM! That is the only redeeming quality of cancer, you have at least some time to embrace and to tell your loved one how much you love them.

Hugs to you OP.
