I'm sorry for your loss, man. I'm old enough to have been through the death thing a few times now, including grandparents and parents. It's a hard road, but you'll get through. You begin to see the bigger picture after a while, out of necessity if nothing else. You are the continuance of your father, you are of him, so you are him, believe me, you couldn't shake him out of you if you tried. I know you'll miss his personality, his individuality, but that's embedded in you too.
@jimmy j: Man, for not knowing what to say, you said a mouthful, beautiful.
