Many poems have been written to explain,
How a mother’s love can soothe the pain.
But little has been said about a Father’s concern,
So.. now… I think it must be his turn.

A Father’s love for his off-spring,
Is just like that of a solid gold ring.
No matter what, it is unending,
Never breaking; though.. sometimes bending.

His love is as strong as a mother’s; although…
Due to his personality, it sometimes doesn’t show.
There is no question of how strong..
Or of its lasting…however long.

So no matter if his child is good or bad,
There is no Love stronger, than that of a Dad.

Today is really hard to wish anyone a “happy Father’s day” and mean it. Today, those are simply just words. I’m sitting here wishing I could just fall asleep and start a new day. But, guess what? I know I will be feeling the same on the 22nd and again on the 26th. You are not here, the one person I want to shower with gifts today. The one I am most appreciative and thankful for. The DAD that has meant the most to me. The DAD who I compare all other dads to. I went to your grave today, placed new flowers, but what else can I do? I can’t kiss you, I can’t hug you. I was your Father’s Day gift 38yrs ago. Why are you no longer here for me?? Next, will be my birthday, but no early morning phone calls from you. No jokes about how I am so much older than you because I am more than half your age. Funny, how still after all those years, I still knew my Dad had a birthday gift for me every year. Then, a few days later, your birthday!! The month I looked forward to every year has now turned into the month I dread the most. Remember our conversation on the last Father’s Day you were here? Tommy’s uncle had passed on Father’s Day and I was telling you how badly I felt for both of his children. Neither one had children of their own, therefore had never celebrated their own Father’s day. I told you I wouldn’t know how to handle it losing my father on Father’s Day. How would I ever celebrate it again. You told me that I should start prepping myself for losing you. You said you wouldn’t be with me forever. Who knew my “forever” would end 3 mths later!! Now, I have to do my best to celebrate Father’s Day for my boys, but here I sit after the boys have celebrated, just thinking of you, thinking of every Father’s day and birthday I spent with you. I have awesome memories, unfortunately I can no longer make memories with you.
Dad, I love you – yesterday, today, tomorrow, FOREVER. Thank you for being the best DAD ever!!

This lift is filled with pain and sorrow.
I always wonder if i’ll make it through tomorrow.I don’t know what i’m going to do. I;m always missing you.

The day you lift was a day no one expected.
That day was very hectic. no one could understand why. NO chance to even say goodby.

But deep inside i know that you are okay.

I think about the joy; laughter,and tears.
and try not to fear.I close my eyes and take a deep breath.But once again i start thinking about your death.

I know you will always be in my heart.
But it is slowly breaking apart.
I always loved haveing you near,
and now i wish you were here.

You will forever be in our lives.
You will forever be a brother.

Letting you know that we miss you,and love you.and things will NEVER be the same.

We thought of you with love today,
But that is nothing new.

We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.

We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.

Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.

Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we’ll never part.

God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.

My Dad

If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold

If could write a million pages
But still be unable to say, just how
Much I love and miss him
Every single day

I will remember all he taught me
I’m hurt but won’t be sad
‘cuz he’ll send me down the answers
And he’ll always be MY DAD

It’s funny how I have waited for answers from you. I have waited to be able to catch a glimpse of you at the house, or maybe even in my dreams. You have made yourself present in the house with the smell of your cologne, and yesterday with the smell of burnt wood. I have felt your presence sitting in the van with me when I am driving alone. But not once have I been able to ask you anything because I can’t see you. Today, Memorial Day, you finally gave me that opportunity. And while others may think I am crazy, I know it was real. All I can say is You Were Wrong! You left us way too soon. It should not have been your time. Yes, it made things fall into place, but you were so wrong!!
Dad, it has been 8 months and the pain is still so very fresh. The memories help me go on day by day, but nothing can ever replace me having you by my side.
Please come back, if only in my dreams.
I love you, and I miss you so much!!

7 months. 7 freaking months that’s what it’s been that I’ve been stuck in this dream trying to wake up. I say to myself. Stay in this dream that’s how you remember him the best. I put a wall up so I wouldn’t be affected the way everyone is. The wall is slowly crumbling. Today I called Witna just to tell her the same jokes I would tell u. Just to keep you alive in my mind. I don’t want you to fade that’s the reason that wall stays up. I Look @ your pictures & still feel you around me. I know you’re around just the faith i’ve lost from all this keeps me from believing that you’re really around. I ask myself what was the reason for all of this. Still I don’t know why. I see no sense to this madness. I just know I wish you were here. I wish you were able to see how happy I’ve become. I wish you would be there next year looking as handsome as ever in a tuxedo when I say those famous words “I do”. I wish you were here to accept my new kids into the family the way you accepted David. I wish you were here to accept your new daughter-in-law into the family like always with open arms. None of this is possible. I understand now. I just wish I was able to get at least 1 more day. Just a few hours to tell you how much I love you. To let you know how you molded me into the man I am now. It’s been a rough road to recovery & although I’ll never truly understand why you were taken from us so early I guess I’ll try my hardest to accept. Love you always papi. Thanks for all the happy tears. Like the song goes. “I could’ve missed the pain but I would’ve had to miss the dance. R.I.P. Pops I will always love & remember you. Thank you for being the best dad a child can have.

Just wanted to say this is a beautiful website to remember mike. He seemed like he lived a happy and full life and he is a very blessed man to have so many people who love and care about him. Wish I could have met such a loving and creative man. He was an inspiration to his friends and family and now also an inspiration to me. He’s one more angel in the arms of god waiting to be reunited with his loved ones. Thank you for sharing this site with me and many others. I am truly touched. God bless you all.
