Amazing writing! I can feel the love along with the pain of the final goodbye. Your father raised an amazing woman; how proud he must be. You have gained an Angel above, and we all need that these days ( evilness is everywhere)

Thank you so much. He never failed to tell me how proud he was of me. I pray I'll be able to continue making him proud and honor the impact that he had on my life, and in my work. 🙏💕

Love this and love you Kimberly. I too have worked hospice for years and sadly said goodbye to loved ones. It is not the same! I pray the pain of losing your dad is eased by the beauty of a healed relationship and the love you knew he had for you and your son, and you for him💜
