Grief is not linear (same goes for sobriety, in my experience). By writing this piece, you are keeping your father’s spirit and memory alive. It’s beautiful. I can feel the love you two shared. Thank you for letting us witness that. I hope it helped, getting these words out. I lost my dad 4 years ago and my heart still breaks a million times over. My dad, like yours, also has a voice that lit up the entire space he was in. And a laugh that would cackle - it was infectious.
Reading this made me feel together in grief. Happy heavenly birthday to your sweet dad. ❤️
