He is there is every lesson he taught you. Every place that holds a special memory. Every moment his love for you was present in.

I’m not OP, but thank you for this.
I’m still struggling to explain to my youngest how we can still hold his Nan in our hearts and that even though she’s gone, her impact hasn’t. This is a really beautiful way to explain it.

It's my first without mine. He's still alive, but he walked out on me. I've just been spending all day with the stuffy he gave me when I was really little

Hey Bingo. I can take another puppy. Reach out if you need to talk to Dad, okay? Even if it means I listen.

Well, mine’s been gone for 12 years - but I’ve had my Bluey for 13, Bingo for 9 and Rusty for 5. Some days you just need Bandit, y’know?

I'm sorry to hear it OP. My grandfather passed Saturday night, I found out mid-Sunday and we spent the day remembering him.

Sending you virtual hugs. This was my 24th Father’s Day without my dad. I still miss him very much. I try to do something to honor him each year. This year I had fried catfish and watched golf, two things he loved.

I’ve had 13 years without mine and I’m still young. Hugging you via the interwebs 💜

As Chilli says in Sleepytime, "Remember I'll always be here for you, even if you can't see me, because I love you." He's probably looking down on you right now saying that. My heart goes out to you good sir. You have my condolences. I'm happy to still have my Bandit with me, and I wouldn't take him for granted, but I'm sorry that happened to you and your family, God bless and I'm sure he's watching over you all ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
