My deepest sympathies on your father’s passing. In many ways I think it’s the hardest part of being an expat/immigrant- the family and friends who are now so much further away, in mileage and time zones - making the celebrations of milestones and presence during more somber events so much more complicated. Thank you for sharing your father with us.
I’m so sorry for the loss of your dad, but it sounds like you had a beautiful goodbye message from him. And it’s wonderful that you have so many good memories of him!
Lovely. I lost my dad a few years ago, so I’m really feeling your second post. And we live in the Algarve so are glad we didn’t need to worry about the crowds in Lisbon during the pope’s visit! But we’re enjoying the photos!
Carol, my deepest sympathies on the loss of your father. I'm so glad you shared the deeply personal experience you had of hearing your Dad call to you when you were soundly asleep. We are so closely connected to those we love.
So sorry for your loss. Obrigada for your note, I struggle with the same. We just went back for my mom’s 101 birthday. I keep thinking it’s the last time I’ll see her, kind of felt it this time, we’ll see.
Thank you for sharing your father with us. Your comments about leaving family to move abroad resonated with me and I am sure with many of your readers. Living our best lives is what our parents want for us, even if it takes us far away. So sorry for your loss.
Such a beautiful tribute to your Dad. Im so sorry for your loss. Even though my Dad passed in 2007, your video brought him back to me for a moment, also a man of that sharp dressing era and supreme love of family above all else.
A lovely tribute to your dad. I am sorry for your loss, but he will remain with you more closely that our can imagine. I know this because my dad passed away in 2002.
