Egluntyne Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I've changed it just for today to a picture of my dear old Dad who died in 2004, as it is Fathers Day, and I can't send him a card. An idea I nicked from facebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Nice idea . This is my lovely dad at 90 last November. He still has a twinkle in his eye even though he often needs reminding who I am! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 A lovely idea. I didn't have time to find a photo and scan it in, but I've been thinking of my father today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken shack Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I last saw my father 25 years ago today. He was very ill and I went to see him for what was to be the last time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmommasally Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 It would have been my Dad's 80th birthday today, he died in 1981 when he was just 50. Still miss him. This is the only scanned photo I have of him, it's my brother having a ride naked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 I had some tears today. My dad is still alive, but only seems to be interested in his other daughter ' my sister'. I have nothing to interest him ( no children). I haven't seen him since March as there are issues that he needs to address, but won't & until he does I will stay away for my own sanity. It's very very sad, but I can say no more. My hubby is daddy to 33 chooks & a sweet cat - we have had a lovely luxurious day. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 (edited) Oh Egluntyne...what a lovely idea; a pity I came across it a day late. Nevertheless, I think of my Dad every day, every day something special or good happens. He died in 1972 and he didn't see me qualify, marry (though that's probably just as well ) and he never met his beautiful talented grand daughter. My mother is still in mourning...........dreadful for her. So here he is in his RAF WW2 uniform He was 25 and had just escaped from Poland where he was an officer in the Polish Air Force Edited June 20, 2011 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluekarin Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I did this on FB. It's a lovely idea, and will do it again next year for both Mothers and Fathers days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadietoo Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 That's such a lovely idea, and great photos of all of your respective fathers. I will be better prepared next year! This Sunday was the first Father's Day without my darling Dad who died last September aged 80..we took some flowers to his grave in the churchyard where he was christened, and, as usual, the sun came out just as we got there - haven't had to visit in the rain yet!! hugs to all of you who have lost a loved one, and , I am sure like me, feel like they have lost a bit of themselves xxxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I found this on a friend's FB status.......I think it will ring true with a lot of you who have a lost daddy...... For Fathers Day. Roses in Heaven, Lord pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Dads arms & tell him there from me. Tell him that I love him & when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his cheek then hold him for a while. Remembering him is easy, I do it every day, missing him is the heartache that will never go away. For all the Dads in Heaven ♥ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
