A Tribute to My Father: The First Good Man I Ever Loved.
I wrote this poem for my dad who passed away at the age of 47, 2 years ago, out of the blue, in his sleep. I wrote this and spoke it out from my heart at the funeral while he was lying at rest behind me. I love and miss him so much.
But, since my dad happened to be still alive, and we had a relationship, it would also give me the chance to encourage him by appreciating specific things that I was grateful about receiving from him. In my case, I didn’t work up the nerve to write and present a tribute to my dad until his 74th birthday, which was almost eight weeks later.

What to write on funeral flowers for Dad. To the best Dad I could have asked for - there are no words to express how much I will miss you. Dear Dad, you will live in our hearts and minds forever. Miss you. Dad, I will cherish every moment spent with you forever. With all my love. You changed my life in countless ways. Thank you Dad for everything.
Why I write. I write because for 67 years no one told the story of my father. Our family and friends, his coworkers and relatives knew him and could share stories, but it was never written down.
My Papa fought the fight of his life and I find it so unfair the way his life is coming to an end. He truly is the strongest man I know, and he will find his peace soon. There’s nothing harder than to watch my father, my hero, my mentor, my best friend, my world suffers from the most excruciating pain, and there’s absolutely nothing I can do.
