I know your heart was healing while you wrote this, and I know your Daddy is very proud of you. I also know that we are, too! _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

Eagle Heart Member Registered: 03/22/05 Posts: 4876 Loc: Canada	Robin, your tribute to your Dad is beautiful - gave me some powerful anticipation of what to do both for Mom on Sunday and for Dad in June. Dad was famous for his BBQ hamburgers - my brothers and I have spent the past seven years since he died trying to replicate the recipe, to no avail (but we had fun trying). That will be harder to do without Gary here (he was the most ardent fan of Dad's hamburgers and it was he and he alone who decided whether each batch of my BBQ hamburgers came close to Dad's) but your tribute has inspired me to continue the tradition of having pseudo-Dad's BBQ hamburgers this year, not only in honour of Dad but in honour of Gary from now on as well. _________________________ When you don't like a thing, change it.

TVC15 Member Registered: 09/03/04 Posts: 2538 Loc: North Carolina	Thank you Eagle. I think that's a very good plan! For me, it's going to be Kielbasa with baked beans. He once said he could live on that! _________________________ Where I've been lately

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	What a great way to honor a loved one. Sweet article TVC. I just celebrated Mom's Day without Mom. Dad's still living. Praise God. How did everyone get through Mother's Day? I'm feeling guilty becasue I wasn't around to put flowers on Mom's grave. We were away for our son's college graduation. I have to put things in perspective and know that Mom certainly understands...but I am still going to get there one day this week with fresh cut flowers from our gardern. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

Sadie Member Registered: 10/08/04 Posts: 1274 Loc: MD	I thought of Mom this mother's day , but mother is buried and hour away and did not get there to put flowers on her grave , but will get there this summer Dad has been gone for 36years and it does get better , but still miss him so at times . I think sometimes they get further and further away from you when they have been gone so long . Just my therary on this .
