Dad,
I miss you so much, sometimes it’s hard to make it through the day. It’s been almost 3 years since you passed and I thought it would be easier by now, but it’s not. The world just seems so dull now, and I know you would hate for me to feel this way. Sometimes I just don’t want to be here but I know life goes on. I,m glad I was the one who got to take care of you but it was so hard. Seeing you go through all of the pain from the cancer was horrible, you never saw me cry in front of you but when I would leave the room I would drop to the floor and burst out in tears, I knew I needed to be strong for you. The day you died was the worst day of my life but I was glad you wouldn’t have any more pain and you were in god’s hands now. I miss my best friend, the one person I could talk to about anything, your smile, you big hugs, watching football games together, supporting anything I did no matter how stupid it was, your wisdom, your smell, your voice, your laugh, just sitting around doing absolutely nothing, writing music together, you teaching me about life, you telling me to drive careful, you always telling me to keep my chin up, you laughing at my dumb jokes, you calling me twenty times a day to see what I was doing, and a million other things.
I love you so much dad, life on earth will be long without you but I will make the best of it. I’m not afraid of death now because I know you will be there waiting. I just wish I could have one more day. I will think of you always and love you forever. Your Lissa
