My Father Has Passed Away

Oh honey, I am sooo sorry. My dad past suddenly 2 years ago and my whole world was broken into tiny microscopic pieces. I know what your feeling, and I am soooooo sorry. My best to you during this tough tough time.

I'm so sorry to hear that. My thoughts are with you.

I just wanted to add, that it does get better with time, but there will be days when it will seem like you will never stop crying. It's been 2 years for me and I am still sad, but I can at least think of him without breaking down for hours and crying.

IM SO SORRY TO HEAR THIS MY DAD DIED WHEN I WAS 20 IM NOW 23 AND IT GETS EASIER. BUT LATELY SINCE THE WEDDING ALL THE REMINDERS CAME UP NO FATHER/DAUGHTER DANCE. NO DAD TO WALK ME DOWN THE AISLE.. BUT WAT I WILL DO IS HAVE MY DADS BLUE TIE B THE RIBBON AROUND MY FLOWER BOUQUET AS MY SOMETHING BLUE AND A REMINDER THAT HES CLOSE TO ME ALWAYS.

This is terrible. You have my sincere sympathy. You will be in my prayers

I am so so sorry! I will keep you in my prayers.

Oh wow...I am SO sorry to hear this!  I hope they figure out what happened soon, so that you and your family have some closure.  My thoughts are with you....

i'm so sorry...you will be in my thoughts!

I'm so sorry to hear this... my deepest condolences to you and family.  This must a very hard time for you, i know, be tough,k?!! My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I'm so sorry, my thoughts are with you and your family. I know what your feeling, my dad pasted away 7 years ago it was hard at first and for awhile after but it does get better. I still miss my dad till this dad. God Bless You Stay Strong...

i'm so so sorry to hear your terrible news.  that's really horrible and even though it might not mean much, i know all the brides at wbc are definately here for you if you need to talk or vent or anything at all.  keep your chin up, everything will be ok, and you know your father is proud of you and watching you with love from whereever he is now.

xoxoxox

oh my gosh, i am sooo sorry!! that is so horrible & i can't even begin to imagine how you must feel.  it will get better, i know that because my fh's mom passed away a few years ago, but it takes time & there's nothing wrong about feeling how you feel. the best you can do is talk to him (spiritually of course) & know that even though he isn't physically there on your wedding, he is spiritually. definitely make sure he & his memory are incorporated into your wedding. again i am so sorry & i'll keep you & your family in my prayers. best of luck darling,

I am so so sorry.  My heart breaks for you and your family, and I cried reading this.  Hugs, thoughts, and prayers to you.

my prayers are with you and your family

I am so sorry about your lost. My prayers goes out to you and your family.

I just have to say:


I'm so sorry to hear this our WBC sister! It must be devestating for you right now. You know what? If I had to go, that is the way I would want to do it. IN MY SLEEP peacefully. I don't want to suffer and be in and out of the hospital with machines through out my body. I'm here for you along with the others if you want to express, crys, laugh or whatever. So sorry to hear this, during your time of planning. He still can walk with you down the aisle. Use something of his- piece of clothing, hankerchief... and have it added onto your dress (inside close to your heart) and bouquet.

Keep in touch with us on how you are doing.

My condolences goes out to you and your family.Only time will
heal.God Bless U

My prayers are with you. It WILL get better I promise. Look forward to your wedding, your dad would want that.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My father passed away when I was 10. That was 10 years ago. The pain does get better as time goes on, but it is something that will always stay with us. You and your family are in my thoughts. I know how hard it must be to not have him walk you down the aisle. Stay strong and just know that he will be there in memory. Maybe you could keep something of his on you for your wedding day. I wear a ring that was my dad's, and plan to keep it on for our wedding day. Again, I'm so sorry.

Oh I am so sorry!! I lost my grandfather recently and I can tell you, it truly does get better over time. You'll always have your memories, and yes sometimes you may get sad, but then you'll remember something funny only the two of you shared, and you'll smile again.

My prayers are with you and your family :-)

I am so very sorry for your loss. I had lost my older brother suddenly 5 years ago. and I know how brutly hard it is, and how you must feel like you are just on auto pilot right now.... I know how difficult it is to hear that things will get better and they do eventually get better - you learn to live. you will never get over it but you learn to deal with it and live with it... I still cry all the time when I think of my Stevie... That will never change but I hold him close to my heart, and that helps with the pain... I keep a photo with me of him wherever I go.... My heart and prayers go out to you and your family... I am so very sorry. Just know you are not alone and there are tons of people who know how you are feeling and who will be there for you!
Sending lots of Love and Prayers... HUGS

I know all too well how it feels to lose a father. I agree with all the words "almostsparks' has written. Believe it or not, it does get easier. Dont get us wrong, we are saddened, and we do still have those emotional times, but you will reach a day where you are able to think of him without being sad...
My dad passed 5 years ago, suddenly. It by far is the worst experience ever.
I havent looked at your profile, so I dont know when your wedding day is, but I hope you and your family find the strength in your memories and love to get thru this. And your wedding plans continue to be how you envisioned it.
Last October I got married, it was a destination wedding (due to the fact that hindu ceremonies are very sad, and I did not want that for myself).  The night before I got married I had a breakdown because I saw another couple get married and I watched the new bride dance with her father and I was sad for myself as I knew that could never happen for me. The day of the wedding, I had my mother walk me down the aisle, and I swear to you that I felt my dad's presence the entire time. I am a very sensitive person, and I did not shed a single tear at my wedding, I was not sad as I felt my dad's presence their along with all the other family members.
Stay strong

I'm so sorry for your loss. I couldn't image the pain you are going through right now.  My FH's father passed away just over 2 years ago and he still cries (I cry with him - I'm crying now with you).

Yes, as time goes by it will get easier but you will always miss him. Just remember he is only a thought away and he will be with always.

I'm so sorry to hear that! I'm sure your Dad would wan tyou to continue with your planning and enjoy it for him!!! you can do something really special in memory of him on your wedding day! I do understand what your going through tough My grandfather just passed away and he was the only father figure i ever had he passed away in june and he too was soooo excited he was going to walk me down the aisle but i will have pics of him at the head table and a memorial candle for everyone to know that he is here with us!! So my point is make your planning about him and it will help you through!!! My thoughts are with you and I'm sorry for your loss and it will get better altough it doesn't seem so right now :)

I lost my father as well, and I don't think it "get's better" I think you just learn how to deal with the pain.  Like the other ladies said, you will ALWAYS remember your daddy, and that empty feeling willing will always be there.  The key is to continue on in a life that will make him smile down on you.  By no means do I want to pressure you into ideas, but I just wrote on another wall the way I will be honoring my father at my wedding.  You can almost say my dad is the theme, lol.  You will be fine, just take it one day at a time.  

Oh, and take it easy on FH, when you are still getting upset a month from now, please talk your feelings out to him.  At that point he has no way of knowing if he screwed up someting or what you may be mad at.  So, if you can try to open up to him and let him know your feelings as time goes by.


wishing you patients and strength

I am so sorry! I can't even imagine what you must be going through. Don't worry about your wedding right now, if you feel like you need to postpone it then you take your time. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss....I pray that as time goes by, you will grow more at peace.  If there is every anything I can do, please don't hesitate to contact me.

I'm really sad and sorry....My thoughts and prayers will be with you.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

the other ladies have pretty much said what i can think to say so all i'm going to say is that i am genuinely sorry for your loss, and i hope that you are able to grieve and cope and heal.  if you ask me, it really does get better with time.  it sneaks up on you every now and then, but overall it gets better, as death is a part of life.  best wishes to you and your family.

I'm so very sorry for your loss :(

Sending you (((hugs))).

I am deeply sorry for your loss.  It sounds like he was a great dad, being excited for you and your  wedding.  My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for you loss.

I am verry sorry for your loss.... My condolences......... I can't even speak words that can comfort you. My prayers are for you.

my prayers go out to you.... he will be there and will be more proud that you kept ur head up....good memories are what you should remember on ur day....he would want it no other way.....

My deepest sympathies to you and your family!! Just know that no matter what your dad will be with you when you walk down the aisle and he will be a proud Daddy!! I can't imagine what you're going through but things will get better! He knows that you are in good hands with your FH!

Thank you everyone for your condolences and support, I really appreciate it a lot.

oh my goodness... I cannot believe that. I can't even begin to imagine.. I am so so sorry for your loss, words cannot even express. You and your family will be in my prayers. Be strong and find support in your FH and family. I know it's tiring to hear the same thing over and over, "you will feel better in time".. but you really, really will. Right now it seems impossible to imagine, but things will feel better one day. Again, I am so sorry..

I just want to say sorry for your loss.  My dad passed 13yrs this July.  It does get easier I promise.  You and your family will be in my prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss

I am so sorry for your loss. This is one of my greatest fears.. My father is almost 70 and it would devastate me if anything happened to him before our wedding, and even afterward for that matter. Aren't our parents supposed to be invincible? I wish that childhood memory was still alive.

I wish you well on your journey ahead of you and know that you will be kept in the hearts of all the WBC family and the other lives that you touch.

I just wanted to say again thank you all very much for your condolences and support, it really means a lot to know that so many people care. I am doing a lot better, though I still cry almost every day and it has been hard to get out of bed. I had a dream "visitation" with my Dad recently that gave me some comfort; he told me a lot of things I can't remember, but the main impression I had was that he was doing well and that I will see him again some day. I sincerely hope that it is true.
Thanks again oxoxox

Oh my goodness...I am so sorry. I can't even imagine the pain that you are in and all that you are going through. I'm glad that your dad came to talk to you in your dream and that provided you with some comfort. It sounds like he really is in heaven and is wanting to let you know that he is still excited for your wedding and will be with you every step of the way.

I truly believe that your dad is alive in heaven and that he will be with you as you walk down the aisle. It doesn't make his physical absence any easier and I will pray for you everyday that you find hope and comfort as you are entering into this new life phase without your dad. Please let me know if you need anything....to vent, prayers, anything!!!

You are loved!!!!!!

I saw a wonderful idea once where the bride carried a candle down the isle to represent her fathers spirit and she placed it in a gorgeous vase at the ed of the isle next to her mother on a stand where her father would have sat. It made me ball like a baby...and I cant imagine loosing my dad right before my wedding, my heart goes out to you.
