Days with My Father

Post by Leif »

For me, a very moving website. Take a look when you have a quiet five minutes or so.

I can't view the web site as it says that the Flash player on my laptop is out of date, surprising really as I updated Firefox yesterday and it forced me to get a Flash update immediately afterwards.

My Dad came round last night, and I will go to visit him tomorrow.

Edited to add: I have seen these pictures now, and I was very moved. Thank you for sharing.

For me too Leif, but for an obvious different reason. I probably shouldn't have looked at it all but it was too captivating to stop. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for sharing Leif.

My Dad has been gone 25 years and I still think of him regularly and miss his influence in my life.

A book that I can recommend highly is Wisdom of our Fathers, by Tim Russert.

http://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Our-Father ... 1400064805" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

A collection of short letters and notes from all over the world about sons and daughters memories of their fathers.
Some humorous, some very touching, all heartfelt. A feel good read. :clapping:
