Thanks so much ya'll....means so much to me,
i was thinking about him earlier and remembered once he had to use my Bronze '69 Charger cause his car was in the shop. I told him to be careful and start slow cause she was fast and it was hot..he might burn rubber.
He was always giving me **** for tearing up the tires
Said just cause gas was cheap did I think tires were???
well yeah, duh Dad.
anyhooo.....I showed him where everything was, he said I taught YOU how to drive young lady, i reminded him I had Drivers Ed...then he took the keys and proceeded to burn the tires like ther was no tomorrow! He was smoking in the church parking lot...yup the same church hes going to be memorialzed in next week he called me when he got to work and said "You know that was fun but i liked to pee'd my pants!" he then proceeded to tell me that car had wayyy too much power for me.
The poor man never got it did he? LOL
He was so proud of me with Butter Cup....he loved all the pics and the magazine article and all.
yup...we is going for a ride.:hurray:
thanks for all your loving kind words.
I knew i always had another family.
Most times ya'll are better than the real thing!!!
hugs to all - rach

You're in our prayers. He must have been a hoot!!

 

God bless you Rachael, Godspeed to your father. You are in my prayers. Jason.

 

Sorry to hear about your dad. It has been decided that when my dad dies im going to put his urn in the passenger of that Chevelle, open a cold beer, and do a giant tire roasting burnout. But I hope to not have to do that for a long time.

 

Really sorry to hear you lost your Father, I will say a prayer for you Rachael.

Rob

 

Deepest sympathy to you and your family on the passing of your father.

 

Rachael,

Sorry to hear about your dad, but as said, with the amount of pain he had been in he is in a better place.

That said it's never an easy thing to lose someone you love.
Our parents raise us, nurture us, place bandaids on our boo boos, give us their love, their exoeriences and teach us right from wrong. They love us unconditionally and watch as we grow up and eventually leave the nest.
They are our heros, our mentors and our guides throughout our lives.

The nice thing is, we have all of those memories to cherish for the rest of our lives.

Rachael, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Take care and let us know if there is anything we can do.
We are, in a pseudo way your extended family and are here for you.

 

I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. You'll be in my prayers too.

 

Rachel, may God give you and your family the strenght needed to tackle this difficult time. Our prayers will be with you and your family.
I was unfurtunate because I did not have a father during my life. For those of you who still have your father alive go give them a hug and a kiss.

 

Rachael anne, i'm so sorry to hear of your loss as well.

-Garry

 

So sorry to hear of your loss :sad: :sad:

Rachael, our condolences, by all means take Dad for one last ride, maybe even bake a batch of brownies to scatter with his ashes.

 

Rachel, very sorry to hear of your Dad. God bless.

 

Rachel,

I can feel your pain as I lost my father in a similar situation. He is in no more pain and in a better place than we can ever imagine. God bless you and your family.

 

sorry for you loss you and your family will be in my prayers

 

Our condolences also Rachael, sorry to hear it but I'm glad to hear his last ride will be in Buttercup :thumbsup:

I still miss my dad and he's been gone since 1969.

 

Losing a loved one is tough, Rachael, but especially so when it's a parent or child. My most sincere condolences, Hun. I've got a big hug for ya, next time our paths cross! In the meantime, know that I love you and will keep you and your Daddy in my prayers.

 

Racheal Anne, I'm so sorry to hear of your daddy's passing. It sounds like it finally brings relief to his constant suffering, and that is a mercy. My condolences to you for your loss. It is good that you are looking at the positive side, and that you will finally take him for a spin in Buttercup.

Isn't it strange how your sister got the strong urge to go and see him just before he passed on. I've experienced the same phenomenon with a friend who died. I couldn't explain it, I just had a very strong urge to call him or visit him. I never got the chance because around that time he was leaving this world.

 

Sorry to hear of your loss. Give him a ride to tell about!
