So sorry to hear that. My condolences. You will think about him every day which at first can make things rough but as time passes it can be very comforting.

My heart breaks for you, TGantz. Such a punch to the gut that takes a long time to recover from. It sounds like your family's coming together and supporting each other while remembering your amazing dad. That's a good start.

Please accept my condolences, too. It's difficult to lose a parent at any time, but truly horrible when it's a surprise. In this stressful time, I hope you and your family can find some comfort in one another. Be good to yourself, as well.

He had a heart attack a few years ago. But he had been doing better with staying healthier.

Tell your dads you love them, you never know if you'll get another chance.
So sorry to hear it. And thanks for the reminder, I will tell my Dad I love him. I worry about his health, too.

I'm so sorry. I lost my mom in July. It is the hardest thing and it is with you everyday. Know that eventually it does get better. Live for your dad and make him proud. Put yourself first for a while and take care of yourself!
