I have to keep telling my self I will see him again. I have to keep an eternal perspective. I have to realize that this life is short...and compared to eternity it is just the beginning. I know these things are true. I know it. It brings peace. It is still hard and it even seems like I am crying more BUT..I really can feel the prayers of others...just like my friend Rachel said happened to her after her father passed.
I bore my testimony today. I don't really like getting up in front of people but my heart was pounding. It doesn't do that often but it has happened a few times and when it does I KNOW that means I need to get up there. After Sacrament I had one of the bishopric members come to me telling me how he felt while I was giving my testimony. It was special. It made me cry. And it made him cry. He wrote it up for me and delivered it to my home. I will cherish it FOREVER.
Again grateful for the gospel. Grateful to know. Grateful to be a part of all true things. There is a quote that I love "I CAN DO HARD THINGS".

Oh Lisa! I am so sorry for your loss. We have been gone and am just finding out about your dad.
My prayers are with you and your family. I am so glad you have the gospel and the knowledge of the plan of salvation. But I know that doesn't ease the pain.
Your dad sounds like a wonderful man. You are so lucky to have had him!
I just caught up on your blog. I'm sorry lady! For some reason it really hit home for me, your dad being in Moses Lake and mine not more than a few miles down the road. I just found out our Ohio family is moving back west and things like this make me say, what the heck am I doing out here so far away from my folks? But I totally know Heavenly Father has his reasons. Thanks for being here in our ward once a upon a time. You made a big difference of kindness and genuineness.
(((hugs)))
Sorry about your dad, Lisa! Thankfully we have the knowledge of the plan of salvation and we know you'll see him again. We'll pray for your family.
