Life Lessons: Daddy you will be missed! But always here....

To all of my North Alabama friends and family:

As all of you know, my Dad passed away on Nov. 9. Though it's been really hard for my family to except that he is gone, he will be forever in our hearts and thoughts. He was my best friend. Always there to listen, talk, debate, even argue with me when I was wrong, but the perfect Dad, never the less.He was our Rock and it does not feel the same without him.

I found this poem on Life Lessons, and it is fitting to say that I learned everything from him on life and he learned some lessons from me as well.

Life Lessons

You may have thought I didn't see,
Or that I hadn't heard,
Life lessons that you taught to me,
But I got every word.Perhaps you thought I missed it all,
And that we'd grow apart,
But Dad, I picked up everything,
It's written on my heart.Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be
The woman I am today;
You built a strong foundation
No one can take away.I've grown up with your values,
And I'm very glad I did;
So here's to you, dear father,
From your forever grateful kid.
Daddy you will be missed and we loved you dearly...........
