Growing up without a dad at home, I often find myself drawn to fatherly like figures and especially any whom give me fatherly like advice and take me under their wing.

Its been hard lately as this loss seems to hurt more due to a different major loss adding into it.

Its opened my eyes to what children really do miss without a dad at home.

The person who died recently was a very kind and helpful person to me.

And this person can still be good for you. And now you can be a good example, too, for others. So, we can thank God, that you have had such a person to share with you :)

Deepest sympathies on the passing of your friend, confident and father figure. I pray for your comfort in this time of sorrow.
