MY DAD PASSED AWAY

[Hillbilly stalker]

I feel for you man. I lost mine Feb last year. It’s the very last thought on my mind every night before I go to sleep. Me and my dad didn’t get to make very many memories in the woods, all he knew was to work. And he worked like a Hebrew slave to support our family. Times were tough. You will find some comfort in the near future by catching yourself saying something or doing some little something….and realize it sounds just like your daddy. I crack a smile when it happens. They always say time heals all wounds…but this is one that’s gonna take awhile.Sounds like you have some great memories, we would really enjoy some stories if you feel like sharing.

So sorry and prayers for you and your family. I've been there and many of my fondest memories were in the field with my Dad. I'll always cherish those memories and hope you lean on your own memories.

Hate that for you. My condolences on your loss

Sounds like you had a great father. Both of you were lucky to have one another. Everyone doesn’t get to have that relationship with their father

Sorry to hear bro. Lost mine Feb 24th at 1145pm. I took my uncle to Waffle House at 330 in the morning after. Dad loved breakfast like no other.

I think about him every single day. I feel like he is helping me guide my son into the military. Something he tried to talk me out of. Very weird but I know for certain that he pokes me in the chest some days and in the back others.

I am so sorry to hear it. I lost mine several years ago, and the missing never goes away.

Sorry for your loss as well! Lots of good memories with dad. I added a few more pics that mean alot to me. He loved to trap and was pretty much obsessed with it and making his knives and tanning furs, making arrows, spears and basically anything to do with native American culture and the old ways. He enjoyed going to Cherokee and sitting by the creek and flint knapping for hours and days at a time. The pics of him with my youngest and oldest grandsons I added as well. The picture of the beaver was the last one we caught together doing some removal for a long time land owner friend. He worked hard all his life and I am proud to say was one of the best paint and body man I ever knew. I learned alot from him and I guess that is why I am in the industry myself. He pretty much kept to himself and didn't want to depend or ask for help for anything. He did love to deer hunt and always loved when opening day come and all of us got together. I have a photo album of the years of catches he made. One of favorite times was when we were trapping a tract outside Washington.Daddy had been trapping there for years. The last stop he said we would each set one on each side of the road. He said to see who would catch first or who got their trap dug up. He always gave me a hard time when one flipped a trap out of the bed. The next morning he called me. " Boy we caught one on each side of that last 2 traps we set". It is times like that phone call that tears me up the most. knowing I won't hear him call again..well thanks for letting me rant a little.

Sounds like he was quite the man. I’m glad y’all made some great memories like that. More dads should take note.
