Hugs Penne, Bree & Carey,
The death of a father sucks. There is no other way to say it. Until you’re there, it’s hard to understand. Things get different over time. The pain and heartache lessens and life does go on. It’s hard to imagine it at times.
I wish you, your mom and families peace and love.
