A note to my Dad on Fathers Day 2011

Dear Dad,
It seems just like yesterday that we were sitting at your kitchen table, drinking coffee together and talking about all the important things in life.. I can't believe it has been over 5 years since we last spoke. You see, Dad, I hear your voice every day. I hear your laugh and find safety in the warmth of your huge smile.Sometimes I can detect part of your reflections in my own voice and it is almost as if in a strange way, we are one. All the wisdom, hope,joy, and compassion that you invested in me speak to me every day as I journey on without your physical presence with me. I am so glad that you instilled the virtues in me that you did and I can only pray that my life is one that you can be proud of. You did your job well and I know that you did it all out of a deep love for your family. I am proud of you and proud to be your son. I miss you so much but I am comforted knowing that you served the Lord and one day, we will be together again forever in His presence. Thank you Dad for investing so much in my life.
I love you and Happy Fathers Day 2011.....
