I remember Daddy´s hands, folded silently in prayer.
And reaching out to hold me, when I had a nightmare.
You could read quite a story, in the callouses and lines.
Years of work and worry had left their mark behind.
I remember Daddy´s hands, how they held my Mama tight,
And patted my back, for something done right.
There are things that I´ve forgotten, that I loved about the man,
But I´ll always remember the love in Daddy´s hands.
Daddy’s hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.
Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.
Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentle
But I´ve come to understand.
There was always love in Daddy´s hands.
I remember Daddy´s hands, working ’til they bled.
Sacrificed unselfishly, just to keep us all fed.
If I could do things over, I´d live my life again.
And never take for granted the love in Daddy´s hands.
Daddy’s hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.
Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.
Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentle
But I´ve come to understand.
There was always love in Daddy´s hands.
Daddy’s hands were soft and kind when I was cryin´.
Daddy´s hands, were hard as steel when I´d done wrong.
Daddy´s hands, weren´t always gentle
But I´ve come to understand.
There was always love …..
In Daddy´s hands.

My dad died last night. I miss him. But I know he’s in a much better place.
Oh no… I am so sorry. {{{lots of hugs}}}
Lorriane, I don’t even know what to say. I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. Just remember that if God brings you to it, he’ll bring you through it. This must be so hard for you and your mom. I wish I knew how to help you feel better.
I am so sorry to hear of your dads passing. I cannot say I know what you are going through. I know how much a father’s love is to a daughter. I see it in Joe’s eyes every time. I didn’t understand with my father. I am so deeply so sorry. You and your family are in my prayers. I pray for strength for you and your mother. I pray for you to find your happiness again. Your father is truly in a better place. I know you want him by yourside. But you will be with him again. You have my love and prayers.
Lorraine,
I have no words to ease your grief nor do I claim to feel your pain but my heart is heavy for your loss. I do believe he now receives God’s praise for living his life with dignity and decency as well as producing children that follow in his kind.
God bless you and your family. My most heartfelt condolences.
Take Care of Yourself
