A friend of mine from my high school as well as my pre-school days I found recently. She told me of the loss of her dad. You know how you get that deflated feeling just knowing the world is minus one person you knew? That was how I felt when she told me. I got a flash of memories of her dad. His favorite car. His getting my brother and a neighbor out of tunnel they got stuck in at Chuckey Cheese's at some long ago birthday party. The time they held a summer party back in 1983, he took turns tossing all the kids up in the air in their backyard swimming pool. So many years have come and gone since these memories took place. We all grew up and lived our lives. We experienced change. We have experienced life.
I don't know what to say to my friend. I do know that her dad will be missed.
