Dad,

It’s such a crazy time of year for me to realize that today is three months since you past away and tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day. As I sit down with Lexi and Asher and ask them questions about Thanksgiving, I am reminded of so many memories I have with you over the Holidays. You were always so into your family and making the Holidays such a special time of year. I am thankful that I got to spend Thanksgiving last year with you. As you usually go over to the Castine’s for Turkey Day, you gave me the privilege of sharing Thanksgiving with you and mom. I never could have imagined that one year ago tomorrow it would be my last Thanksgiving with you. Today more than ever, I am truly grateful for all the time I had with you. I wish that I had more time with you but I can’t be any more thankful of what God allowed me to have. You are missed so much and I can’t help but say that every time I write to you. Someone told me the other day that they still can’t believe you are gone. And I thought to myself, me either. I never thought about the day that I would say good bye to you and I never thought about today when I would be sitting here writing you telling you that I missed you so much. You were always there for me, you gave me everything life could offer, and you loved me so much. I thank God today for giving me you. I loved everything about you and you were the best father in the world. I hope God has told you how much you mean to me. He hears my prayers, sees my tears, and understands my pain that I have in my heart since you past away. I wish you were here but I know that you can’t be. Just remember that I love you, I think of you every day, and I am forever grateful for the time I had with you. Happy Thanksgiving Dad.

Love,

Jenny
