I did not know my dad as he died when I was very young. How do you write about someone you did not get to meet? All you have are a few stories from a few relatives that kept in contact after he died. My mother tells me what she can remember of a husband taken away from her too young. My father was in the Canadian Army and was very proud of that. He was a paratrooper who loved the outdoors.

It's funny how you can miss someone who was never there throughout your life. I guess the first time it hit me was when I got married. I had to think about who would walk me down the isle. It was during the rehearsal that it hit me...who will give me away? I remember crying in the church missing a father I had never known. The week of my wedding problems arose and the stress was really getting to me. I went to bed one night when the stress was at its worst. I heard this voice that kept saying, "don't worry...everything will work out fine....your wedding day will be beautiful". I was not quite asleep and thought I was hearing things. I looked around and saw no one there. It dawned on me in that moment that it was my father reassuring me when I needed him most that everything would work out fine. He was right! The day went off without a hitch.

I do believe from that day on he is around me, watching out for me. I wish I knew more about who he was as a person. Maybe one day I will find out.

Hello From Heaven
◕⊱✣⊰◕
It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrops
I so wish I could erase...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...
◕⊱✣⊰◕
SLEEP TIGHT ANGEL
