My Dad.
There are people in life you just believe will go on forever.
I mean, of course, we all come to our end, but these people just are such a huge presence in life, so integral to your being, your thinking, to your own life, that the contemplation of their absence is impossible.
My Dad.
There’s an older country song called “Daddy’s Hands.”
The late Holly Dunn sings:
“There was always love in Daddy’s Hands
So there was for me.
Such strong hands.
Reliable hands.
Capable hands.”
