......... my Dear, Sweet, Kind, Wonderful Dad, who went to Heaven 16 years ago today. He was 74 years young when Leukemia took him away from us, and he and my Mom were just 19 days away from celebrating their 51st Wedding Anniversary.
I couldn't have asked for a better Father, and that's the Gospel truth :) The thought of him makes me smile, sooooooooo he's given me a smile every day for the last 16 years!!!!!!! I will be forever grateful to him for all that he did for me and I'm happy to report that he is the one responsible for teaching me how to use a sewing machine!!!! One of the many, many gifts he gave me through the years :) I love you Daddy and I'll be missing you all the days of my life.
"The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, He leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever." (Psalm 23)
P.S. Tks so much for visiting and commenting Nancy!!!! Since you hang around with Carla and Fran, I know you're one of the good 'ole gals :)
