Oh, Becky, I am so sorry. Even though the two of you went through many difficult times, he’s still your dad and it hurts to lose him. I’m glad you were able to talk to him about a lot of stuff just recently and that you don’t feel guilt or regret over anything. The important thing is, he knew you loved him. My thoughts are with you and your family, and for what it’s worth, Happy Birthday.

Hey, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I’m glad you got to at least clear the air a little before he passed away.
I didn’t realize it was your birthday! I’m sure it’s not the best one you’ve had, but I hope you at least enjoy it a bit. When you get back, we’ll do lunch.
Love ya!!

Delurking to say how very sorry I am about your dad. That is just terrible. I’m glad that you have no regrets, because I know what it’s like to have regrets. It sucks.
And also, happy birthday….even though it probably doesn’t feel like a very happy day.

Becky,
I have been gone and just read your blog. I am so sorry! I hope your doing okay and are holding tight to your family during this time. Things have a way of happening that we don’t always understand, but I hope you have some comfort in knowing you made amends with him. Take Care!

Oh Becky, I am so incredibly sorry for you and your entire family. My thoughts will be with you.
There are no words, this has been a awful week for almost everyone I know.
I hope that means that brighter things are just around the corner.
Much sympathy,

Becky, I know you guys went through a lot of tough times, and some not-so-close periods, but I’m sure it is sad and hurts like hell. I’m glad you were able to make amends last month and that you had that moment of closure. I’m so sorry. FFF
