A Father’s Legacy

My dad has been gone from this life for 6 years. Still, not a day goes by that I don’t think about him. These thoughts usually come by way of considering how he would handle a situation or how he would enjoy hearing a certain piece of news.

For a long time, remembrance was painful. It was unclear if the loss would ever quit hurting. Now though, remembrance brings a smile as his wisdom aids me in the day’s troubles.
My dad never got to meet my son’s wife or their two boys. I know how he would love them. The good news, though, is that his memory and legacy live on in me and my son.
This then is the point of life. To live so that the wake of your life leaves a positive impact on others long after you have gone. My dad accomplished this. It is my sincere hope that I can too.
