Heart-breaking, love-affirming eloquence! Let the memories of happier times and your father's selfless courage throughout the decades of your lives sustain you now, in your time of keen grief.
As my Italian grandfather said about soul-crushing times such as the loss of a beloved father, "Tiempo deva passant."
(please forgive undoubtedly poor Italian spelling!) This is simply time which just must be lived through. 🍃☮️🍂
As the father of two young (12 and 8) children, I can't tell you how moving I found your eulogy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing. The only problem...I have to find some tissues after the weeping. :) May your father's memory be blessing, and may you find comfort in your grieving.
Your beautiful tribute to your dedicated father touched me and stirred memories of my own father. Damon, my appreciation of your mind has grown and now I gained some insight into your heart.
May you forever be blessed with your memories of your faterh.
BTW- this is the first time I took the trouble to navigate to your Substack site and you've acquired a new subscriber. Thanks.
Intensely beautiful tribute to your father. I am mourning my sacred father who died 7 months ago, so am with you in a kind of spirit. We are grateful for their lives!❤
What a beautiful and touching tribute to your father. May his memory be a blessing for you and your family. He sounds like he was a kind yet complicated man.
So very sorry for your loss; your father Irwin was a wonderful man.
Ps: my late father was also Erwin but with an "e".
He appears to have been a good man and a great father. May his memory be a blessing.
