11 years ago today I became an orphan, or at least that is how it felt.
My last living parent died, my father died on this day in 2006.
I could write something every five minutes on this gratitude blog and would never be able to express all the blessings I have had in my life.
He was such a strong man who had overcome so much in his lifetime, he had a will to live that no one else has ever matched, none that I have met.
I think I have a lot of his traits in me, especially his ability to deal with whatever life threw his way and make the best of it and the I will be damn if I let this bring me down.
Today I am grateful to have known this man, I called father for 47 years... I miss you Dad.
