Oh, my friends. I'm going to be away for a while. My beloved daddy passed very suddenly this morning of a heart attack. Ron and I are in Michigan now. Don't know when I'll be back. But I will be back and I will tell you all about the most amazing father a girl could ever hope for. What a privilege it was to be his daughter.
Love love love,
SJ

Oh, Sandra, I'm so sorry! This must be horribly unexpected for you! No one deserves to lose a loved one like that. Take your time, and do what you have to do to say goodbye. We'll be here for you and remember that you and your dad are in our thoughts.
Sending you waves of love and hope and warm blankets and more love to help get you through this very tough time.
You are indeed a very lucky woman to have such a happy relationship with your father, and I'm so glad you got to fully enjoy your wonderful time together on this earth before he passed.
He's with you still, and always will be, whenever you need him.
Thinking of you,
~ Lauren

Sandra, my love and thoughts are sent your way! It's never easy loosing someone near and dear to your heart. If I could-- I'd give you the biggest hug I could possibly give. Hang on to the memories of your father-- those are the priceless things that can never fade. I can only imagine how proud he is of you and what you've done in your life. =)
Lots of Love and thinking of you,
Kearyn xoxo
Brightest blessings to you and your family. {{{{ hugs }}}}
ahh! soon as I saw your dads precious smile in all these pics they brought tears to my eyes. He's got the look of such a kind,loving gentle guy :) He reminds me of my grandpa who passed away last year. My gramps was like my dad. He raised me, I never knew my 'real' dad. I never needed a dad cause my grandpa filled those shoes, more than most real dads :) My gramps was amazing! And it looks like your dad and my gramps where men from an era, well, they just don't make them like that anymore.
Im so glad to hear your all doing better, and that your mom is doing so much better than before :)
God bless you all, and keep pressin' on girl!
No words needed to tell us how very dear your Dad was--both of you were blessed to have each other--I can just imagine how proud he was of you. Maybe that will give you some comfort knowing you gave him so much--he will always be with you in spirit and will always watch over you. What a gentle man he was is shown in his smile.
Love, Jenny

Sandra, I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so hard to loose someone that you care deeply about, especially a parent. All our thoughts and prayers are with you. I know that it always brought tears to my eyes hearing you sing, "Wishing You Were Soemhow Here Again", just because it brought back so many good memories of loved ones of mine, including my uncle. Happy holidays, hun.
Sandra,
I am so very sorry for your very unexpected loss. The pictures show your Dad as a proud and happy father with a big smile. Although I never met him, he looks like he enjoyed life and was a loving Dad for his family. I know how difficult losing your father is. My Dad died in 1998 and I still miss him and frequently dream about him. I will keep you and your family in my prayers at this difficult time.
Dear Sandra,
I haven't been to your blog lately, so so sorry these wishes are late. I am SO sorry to hear of your dad's unexpected passing! The photos are lovely and bring tears to my eyes. I know he was proud of you, as you were of him!
Words can't convey the grief and sorrow that you have. Just know that blessings and big hugs are being sent to you and your family.
Love,
Jan
