Default Special memories of Special People

My father is dying of lymphoma. It will be a blessing when he passes. Meanwhile, I sit here and think of how he was in better times.

I'll miss the way he'd put his hand on my knee when I sat down beside him. He'd give it a squeeze and say, "I sure do love you honey."

And when it was time for dessert, he'd always say, "Just give me half a dish." Once I literally cut a Cool Whip container in half before I served his half-scoop of ice cream!

I'll always be trained to turn my head when I hear a loud, sharp whistle. I've tried and tried to whistle like that, but I just didn't inherit the "whistle gene", lol.


Please feel free to share your fondest memories of the people you miss most.
