That was a beautiful tribute to your Daddy, Dawn… thank you for sharing it!  I have a poem that will hopefully give you some comfort.  It is called “Death Is Not the End”, and the Spirit caused me to write it for my best GF years ago when she lost her husband.  You can find it here:

Also, if you will please send me your email address at peggym@his-forever.com I will make your something else special to remember your Dad by.  Be comforted in Him, sweet sister!

Love from your sister in Yahshua!
