This is a speech I wrote for my dad’s funeral. I am ok now, and think I can finally post this. The rabbi included it in his eulogy.

Dad, what to do now? Nothing can compare to a true Renaissance man like you. Your passing is something out of pure pain and loss. Nothing will look the same. There will always be unresolved issues. There will be pain. There will be tears. There will be life. There will be missed things I wish to show and see with you.
Step, what is the next one. Breathe, just under stand and feel. What is the next step. call, inform feel ask for help. What is the next step. It is a statement not a question. it is the only way to get around, and function, to have life. To get through your grief.
Something’s are unknowable. Some pains will be different fore everyone. There is no death that affects ANYONE the same. However understanding that others care for the same person that you do helps. Helps in understanding that they were and how they lived. Life is an existence with facets. With each view changing threw our census and feelings.
How do you cope with loss? How would anyone know but the lost party who, how and in what way, they would want their wishes to be done. All who receive these words this please take just a few minutes some time soon to just write a list of who you care fore. Who should know? How you see the time after your existence. Create something for the ones around you.
I love you dad. I could not have done this with out
skye_ds, or sineater . I would never have made it threw the week. loads of things happed but that will come later. happy moments, sad moments, it does not feel like just a week ad 2 days Since he past. much love for all of my friends.
