it's been 23yrs today on fathers day since my dads suicide by cop,he was only 39yrs old. I was only 12yrs old when it happen, & i was the last one to talk to him. I miss him alote, I can remember him but if i didn't have a picture of him i probly wouldn't remember his face, his long black hair & beard,& his deep voice. He drove a truck & took us places like the ocean or the boardwalk & go on all the rides or going over to his parents house where he lived, hanging out in his room playing w/ his accordian or going to the park down the street from his parents house.
He never got to give me away on my wedding day or see any of my kids grow,or take my kids crabing like we did.
poam for him
Do not stand by my grave an weep
I am not there I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awake in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circling flight
I am the soft starshine at night
Do not stand by my grave and cry
I am not there--I did not die.
