My dad passed away in January 2024 after an 8 year battle with Alzheimer's. He was well-cared for by his wife, my stepmother and we, his children were grateful for that. However, she chose to alienate herself from his family in the past few years because we chose not to do the covid jab due to several family members getting sick and/or dying. This meant that when I went to see him the last time for Father's Day 2023, I was not allowed to hug him. I was devastated then and still today.

I have the opportunity to visit his urn at a mausoleum this month. I will be reading this poem. I am familiar with it and it is lovely. I miss him terribly. He was my champion.

Sorry to hear about your loss Tritorch🙏. Beautiful poem and music . 🩷. My last living aunt died a few weeks ago and talked with her about where she was going while she was in hospice. Your stack essay resonated with me quite a bit and touched my heart . 💜 . Thank u .
