I agreed with what someone else wrote, "Beautiful tribute!" I remember when you shared about your Dad's cancer five years ago. One of my favorite parts in what you wrote today is the third paragraph. I know that feeling of the acknowledgement and awe that we've been given ___ more years as a gift from God to continue to treasure time with that very, very special loved one. As you've shared over the years, we've been able to see you 'make the most of every opportunity' and how RICH that is, enjoying and SAVORING each moment together. I also want to say that over the years it is always neat to see glimpses of your Mom's ideas or encouragement to you (reminds me so much of my mom!!) and I love, love, love her idea she had here for the meaningful celebration, and the little touches I see in the photos. Mother and daughter, you are both a beautiful team, and kudos to your Dad and his big accomplishment, and glory to God indeed! ~annmariejoysmallpackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09592834616546273455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-39707265305446587192013-12-03T00:02:31.635-05:002013-12-03T00:02:31.635-05:0010,000 Cheers for 10,000 miles by a SUPER GREAT gu...10,000 Cheers for 10,000 miles by a SUPER GREAT guy!

Kuddos to your Dad for being an inspiration to us all!<br /><br />And many blessings on you all as you love and appreciate and celebrate each other and God.

He just found new ways to do the same old things and stay fit! Sadly, my dad took a bad fall last November and never recovered and went home to be with the Lord in April. At his memorial service, my brother and I sang "10,000 Reasons"! :-) <br /><br />You and I have much to be grateful for! My dad was taken much too soon (he was just 70) but I had the best and godliest dad for 45 years and I will never take that for granted! Congratulations to each of you! God is good!Jennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617895.post-66389280581633632112013-12-02T06:08:54.893-05:002013-12-02T06:08:54.893-05:00I will think of your family every time I hear &quo...I will think of your family every time I hear "10000 Reasons" from now on too!
