So I went to say goodbye to my hero today my dad 

Sleeping peacfuly  is all I could see through the tears 

This man was my king who didn't need a crown 

My hero who didn't need a cape 

The definition  of a gentle giant .

My life will never feel the same again Broken heart 

  • Oh D3bz What can one say at such a sad time, there are no words that will make you feel better, but at least you have the comfort of knowing he was sleeping peacefully.

    I just would like to send you a little poem I love called "What is dying"

                    I am standing on the seashore.  A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning

                    breeze and starts for the blue ocean.  She is an object of beauty and I stand and watch her until

                    at last she fades on the horizon.

                    Then someone at my side says *There she has gone" - Gone where? 

                     Gone from my sight - that is all.  She is just as large in the mast, hull and spars as she was when she

                    left my side....... The diminished size and total loss of sight is in me and not in her, and just at that moment

                    when someone by my side says "She's gone", others take up the glad shout - "There she comes".

    I do believe this to be true, and hope it brings you a little comfort knowing that your dear Dad will be reunited with his loved ones that have gone before him..
