Come to me
in some beautiful dream,
where once again you will swing me up
on your broad shoulders.
Time in the sunny days of memory,
where over the river we ride
I comforted in your steady care
my best captain
over every sort of water
sit by my side
dream of unknown fishes
and laugh with me
until sunset falls.
I love you and miss you dad, thank you.

Sorry for your loss dear Corby, it is very difficult to lose a beloved parent.
His suffering has now stopped, so take comfort and courage in those beautiful memories of times spent together, you will always have those.
Such a beautiful post in his memory.
My thoughts are with you sweet girl. ♥
Dear Corby, I am so sorry.
He will send angels to comfort you.
Bless you, my friend.
Corby, there are no words, except know that he's in a better place. And I understand...
God will guide him and you to ease your heart, so fear not, you will be together again one day.

Your beautiful memorial brings tears to my eyes - you were blessed with him being in your life - your captain.
I lost my father when I was six. I've struggled to carry what few and hazy memories I have of him with me all these years. My mother never re-married, so she has been captain, and so alone except - for her crew - I think that's the worst part.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Sorry about your Dad. Prayers to you and all he loved.
Thanks everyone, today is the wake and all those rituals of death we have. I go to honor him.
Thanks for your kindness.

I read this at his funeral the other day.

My father, also, has gone on ahead of me. My husband followed him. I am still here.
I know your hurt. May you find comfort.
