I don't think you ever get over the death of someone you love. You only get used to living without them.

Like you said, now that you are ready to begin a family of your own, you are probably feeling the empty spot your Dad left behind a little more deeper. It's a shame your kids won't have the chance to know him face to face. You will be able to share stories and pictures with them though.

I guess the only peace you can find in all this is that at least you have a wonderful memory of him. Even though he isn't here now....you have the joy of remembering the relationship and how much you meant to one another. In your heart he will always be with you.

I think it would be worse if someone has a parent who is alive and does not have any happy memories of them.

I wish I could make you feel better!
