My dad left on May 4th 1983, one and a half years before I got clean.I miss him dearly and today I will write him a letter and bring it to the grave site,tell him some jokes,tell him I love him and remember all the good times we had.I will not regret the years I was "out on the tiles' and purposely lost contact but I will focus on who I have become through God's grace and mercy and share that with my dad. As a father ,a son and a husband I will spend a little quiet time today on reflection and joy.l hope for all out there they have a blessed day and for me I will definitely be with my "ultimate" father, the God of my understanding.It won't be joyous for all on this day because thats just how life is,but you can choose happiness in your life so thats what I will pray for today. Happy Fathers Day to whom it may concern..Just For Today I will tell my dad how much I love him,no matter what has gone past.I will love him as my Father LOVES ME!!.........peace..

My dad died when I was 11 years old. I have often wondered how different my life would have been had he lived. I will spending this father's day with my daughter and son in law, so I am blessed. My son will probably call, he's pretty good about that sort of thing. All holidays are a mixture of sadness and joy for me. But today I will focus on the joy, and seek an opportunity to do something helpful for someone.
my dad is still around he did get to me relatively clean and happy fathers day to you mike my daughters all have called and said happy fathers day but none of my sons have called yet i wonder??????lol
