    And I find I'm more and more like him each day
    I notice I walk the way he walks I notice I talk the way he talks
    I'm starin' to see my father in me.

    This is truer than you know. I just lost my daddy today, he was a great daddy, and granddaddy. I only pray I'm at least half the dad he was to me. I'd give anything to hug him and tell him I love him one more time.

    The best compliments I receive as sixty six year old man is when family friends tell me "you're just like your dad". Gone since 94, but I still feel him with me every day.

      My friend, as you acknowledged, that is the greatest compliment! My Dad departed to be with the LORD in 2013, but I have felt his loss since. He was the one who taught me love JESUS. He was the one who taught me to be a loving and compassionate man. Since his transition, many people have commented how much, I look like him, but also act like him. Those are the best compliments I can receive!

    My dad is my fav person. I never thought I’d meet my best friend without even searching. Each day goes by, and his heart just keeps growing bigger and bigger. My dad is so amazing. He’s the sweetest person you’d ever meet. He couldn’t hurt a fly, even if he wanted to. Unfortunately, he’s pushing 40, and I don’t know how much longer he’ll be here. Hopefully he’ll still be here when I have a family of my own. My children would be so blessed to have a grandfather like him. He’s always told me that I would always be his little girl, even when I’m 30. And I believe it. He’s a very wise man. And there’s not a single bad bone in his body. I’ve learned so much from him. He’s taught me so many things. He’s taught me how to be a man even though I’m his daughter. My dad is an amazing man, I hope my little brother and my future children grow up to be just like him. My father and I are literally inseparable. Love you daddy ❤

      I just wish I had someone that knew how important my dad was to me we spent alot of time in the mountains together and we always talked alot. I really wish he hadn't died but sometimes I feel like he might have wanted it that way. In the end he wasnt happy and that was obvious. He had attempted suicide when I was 9 and he made it through but it did mess his face up a bit but I didnt care I knew he was still my dad and I didnt look at him any different. But after the attempt he was never himself again. My dad never cried I dont think I ever seen him cry before this but 1 day he walked in and said I think this medicine is making my depression worse and he was crying. I felt so bad for him after the attempt because I knew he wasnt happy he would still do some stuff but not like he use to he still functioned right and everything and he could talk perfectly normal and his face was normal for the most part but the gun took his nose bone so that was the only thing missing but he also lost vision in his left eye. I just really miss him more than anything and I wish more than anything that someone knew that he was that important to me. I never show emotion in front of people the only person I've ever really cried in front of is my mom. She will ask me what's wrong but when I mention something about school it dont even seem like she pay attention and she tells me to bring my grades up but I'm like do you not listen to anything I tell you? And she says yes but u need to try to bring your grades up. And I just say well if the teachers would try to teach us I would. Because the teachers at my school "teach" the lesson then their rhe work at tour face and if u dont have it dont by the next day they scream at you when u had 4 pages for each class and only 3 hours left of daylight when u get home. Now tell me that's not bullshit

    Love this song! My dad had alzhiemers and loved him so much. He was my first best friend. We shared a lot together, especially during his declining period. He couldn't speak much but watching his eyes light up when we came to get him. He and my horse Navaho had quite a relationship. Navaho kept him away from the water trough and the gates. We loved having him at our house and our lives. He was very special to all of us. When he couldn't/ wouldn't drink or eat, we knew it was time to start letting him go. He will always have a special place in my heart. Died in 2001 and seems like yesterday. When I miss him, I play this song. Thank you for sharing your talent, Paul. Hugs and prayers.

I've been told all my life how much I looked like him, acted like him, talked like him and even sounded like him. I admit, I was a sobbing mess that night. I miss him everyday and will honor him as best as I can for the rest of my time. He's the reason I wanted to be a cop. He was one of the best. HIs fellow cops said so.

    This is me and my dad. Almost everyone I know tells me I look just like my dad. And my dad is a legend. A navy lieutenant, merchant fleet captain, manager and business owner and loving husband and father. Now retired, enjoying his golden years.
    Growing up I was closer to my mom. My dad was always busy with work and had to deal with a lot of stress. Sometimes I felt like he didn't really care about me, but he did. He kept going at redline to provide for my mom and me. And the older I get, the closer I get to my dad.
    My dad didn't just give me advice in life, he even worked for me without pay. 6 years ago I started a small gardening/ cleaning business and I didn't have enough money to hire a secretary and accountant. I was doing everything, but I was burning out, stress was getting to me, I started drinking heavily. My dad stepped in. He did the books, he handled the calls when I couldn't, because of my day job. He did that for almost a year, until he was sure I was on my feet and could carry on.
    For his 60th birthday I did buy him a 5m fishing boat with trailer and an old pickup to tow the boat and it was a unique experience.
    I learned how much my dad really loves me. When I arrived home with the boat, he had tears in his eyes. I had tears in mine and gave him a big hug. We went fishing that evening, we didn't catch anything... but it was fantastic.
    My dad shaped me into the man I am today. Sergeant, car salesman, manager and business owner and loving boyfriend. Hopefully one day in the not so distant future, I'll be a loving husband and father too... just like my old man.

He died 5 years ago at 92 and now days people I meet tell me how much I remind them of him. I even had a man that I had just met tell me that he knew my 24 year old son was related to him by the way he looked and acted.
    Funny how life works
    I miss you Dad!

    I dedicate this song to my father and my late father-in-law.
    As a child, I favored my mother more in looks. As I've reached my early 40's, I see that I've begun to favor my father more. Even little things like the way we cough are the same. I'm also bull-headed and stubborn just as he is. My father is 83 and he's had three health scares in the past six months, more than he's had in all of his life. As we've both gotten older, I cherish every moment and conversation with him. He is the strongest man I've ever known. I can't imagine what life will be like without him someday. I pray for my wife who lost her father this year. She was a daddy's girl and my heart hurts for her. My heart truly breaks for everyone who has lost their father.

He was a very good husband, father and friend who taught me alot. Used to spend summers going to work with him doing aluminjm siding and other carpentry work. Soooo loom forward to meeting up with him again when this life is finished in this crazy world. Blessings to all.

    I don't know how I can relate to this song. My father wasn't around for the first 38 years of my life. I was rejected by him until we met face to face for the first time when I was 38 years old as I said. It was like reality hit him sqaire in the face. I have times off and on with him. More off than on. There are issues between me and him. Because of the rejection. It still happens today and it hurts. But I love him. He's my father. I just wish we could get along with eachother better.

    This one causes alot of emotional pain and grief. Because I lost my dad December 3rd 2013. About 22 day's before Christmas. I will never forget the sacrifices my dad made for me. I had to do without a lot of thing's, when I was a young child still under my parents supervion.... But the one thing I didn't have to worry about ever losing. Was the love my dad had for me. So I know, that my dad sees me from heaven playing this music about father's. And he's probably saying. Son always did the best that I could possibly do while I was with you. And there's not a day that goes by that I don't miss you. BUT I'M GLAD THAT YOU UNDERSTAND.
