In my previous post, I said that it doesn't seem like my father has passed. I know he has but I just didn't feel it.
I had a reality check today. As I walked into the funeral home, I saw my dad's name and picture scrolling on the marquee...
Still doesn't feel real to me.
Walked into the room where he was...
A little more real, but not quite.
Walked up to the casket in which he lay...
VERY REAL!
I was overcome with emotion as I looked at my father laying in the casket.
He looked great. I know it sounds weird that I'm saying my deceased father looked great but he did. While he didn't look like I remember him, he still looked great. He had a slight smile on his face as if to say, "finally,I am at peace"
...and I'm at peace because he's at peace.
