I am so sorry to read of your dad's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I know your dad sure must have enjoyed those visits when you would take Gus and Izzy. I bet they will miss that special time too.

Here is poem I wrote that I hope to have read at my dads funeral Wednesday. I am no poet, but I tried my best. I wanted to share it with all of you because I love you guys. You are all so caring. I am not sure if I will change it any. Any suggestions would be great.
And yes, I am sure Izzy and Gus will miss their visits. In time, I may volunter there and take them for visits.

Dear Dad, We love you,
We miss you so much
Your love and your kindness
Your soft gentle touch

If we had to live life over
We would chose you once more
If it meant losing you again
It's worth all the tears in the world.

While our hearts are now filled
With sadness and tears
We had many good memories
You will always be near

The day that you left us
Tears fell from the sky
Our hearts filled with sorrow
You said your goodbye

For years you did fight
And struggled to stay here
But you sent us a sign
When the end was quite near

Thank you for sending
That white butterfly our way
Your soul is at peace
And not far away

Your body has died
But your spirit lives strong
In each one of us
Where it forever belongs

You struggle no longer
You are free of pain
Your mind is clear
And know everyone’s name

You can play tennis once more
And go for a bike
You can drive where you please
Up the mountain you can hike

In the breeze we hear your whisper
Feel your warmth from the sun
Upon the lake we see your reflection
In the stream we see you run

Your time here was short
We wish you could stay
But they need you upstairs
The angels called you their way

They won’t hear you coming
So softly you walk
When you get up to heaven
Make sure that you knock

Spread your wing and fly
Up to heaven you go
No longer will you suffer
Down on earth here below

Until the day comes
That we cross over too
Our family will not be complete
Until we meet that day with you

Sarah, your poem is beautiful, it made me cry. What a wonderful tribute to your Dad. Take care.

[Gruntsmom]

Your poem is a beautiful tribute to your Dad - he must have been a wonderful person and a great dad. It brought tears to me, too. It would be such a great way of honoring his memory to take Izzy and Gus to the care facility, where they would bring a lot of happiness.

[auntthelm]

Thinking of you today. Your poem was a beautiful tribute to your dad. He must have been a really good person, because he raised a loving, caring daughter.

What an amazing tribute to who sounds like was an amazing man. I pray you had the strength to read it today and if you didn't that's ok I'm sure he has seen it already My prayers and thoughts continue to be with you and your family during such a difficult time and Chance sends gentle wiggles and kisses your way
