I have yet to suffer this type of loss, but I know it's coming, and I'm very sorry you are going thru this difficult time. The only advice I can offer is to lay all your burdens on God, He will bring you peace. Keep your happy memories in your heart, and your chin up....a lot of people here care!

I'm thinking of you tonight. I've been where you are and its very difficult, to say the least, right now. Accept all hugs and prayers , you will find great comfort and solace in them. Let them share your burden of grief with you, if only for a moment. There's something freeing about that.
Later on down the line, believe it or not, you will experiences glimpses of a happy life that continues without your Daddy. It's not what we would have wanted, and its WAY different, but it is a good life. You will smile and laugh again, my sweet friend!
Take care,theres always someone here for you.

Daughter to Lloyd Cunningham, my precious father, who slipped away from us 8 years ago October 3rd.

Man,

the thing is that if you had a good relation to Dad, rest in peace, you ought to have few regrets and you should mourn as it is natural. Meanwhile if you need good vibes, prayers and a phone call just count me in, will ya?

My father lives 1100 km's from here and we are not able to see each other too often. I miss him dearly and hope he can move home to Sweden soon. He has been sick a lot and they have performed 8 operations on him in a few years. Time is short sometimes.

All my best-

Daniel

Dear all,

Thanks you so much for all the kind words below, it has really helped at this time and has been very uplifting. It's an irony that Toto should stop the same year that my Dad passed away, but I don't think of Toto as stopping, nor my Dad. The legacy and memories live on.

One special memory that I have is when I was able to meet some of the guys when they came to England in 2007. My Dad and I had waited out in the cold in Manchester for a couple of hours, and I was so glad that the band had time to say hello when they arrived at the venue.

As well as going to see Toto that evening, I had travelled to Manchester and met up with my Dad for the day. He wasn't able to go to the concert in the evening, but it was nice to have shared that experience with him.

Thanks again for all the kind words,

Howard.

So sorry for your loss, Howard. One day at a time, that's all I can think of...
And some day those memories of your Dad that make you sad right now, will make you smile.

Lots of hugs from Helsinki.

Howard ,my feelings go out to you . As for the grief you feel for the lose of your Dad,I understand. Having lost my Dad, Mother and Sister. The advice I can give is this.
It takes time to heal.
My father passed after a tragic car accident .It will be 3 years October 18th.
Only God can heal a broken heart. Please if you are having a hard time dealing with your fathers passing. Do seek some counseling.Do not hide yourself away in silence. Talk to someone.
Write down all the wonderful memories you had with your dad .Read them back to yourself from time to time.
Ask God to replace your hurt with joy.
God Bless you ! Jorgi C

It's difficult to give advice, but my heart is with you.

I'm sorry I didn't know so I could've been there for you.

Any advice, well first of all I agree with Pat's words, that is all so true!
Losing your dad....... well, it SUCKS big time!!! My daddy passed away now a little over 5 years ago. The main part of getting over is TALK! That's about the best thing I can say to you, that and again, the words of Pat.

Drop in here every now and then and just write what you feel, I guarantee that there will always be someone to cheer you up (or at least try to do so) but even if there isn't....... writing helps you keep things in perspective.

A lot of good vibes coming from Holland to you. Cherish the memories!

Hugs from Holland!
Music is the answer!

I am so sorry...we are here for you...Hang in there the best you can, time heals,,,

A big hug and some of that precious Toto-love coming your way as we speak. And i do have some words for you , i'll just borrow them from our fave band

Our love doesnt end here
It lives forever
On the wings of time

I'm not a complete idiot ... Some parts are missing !

I know it sounds real easy Howard, but time is the healer... You never ever forget those who are close to you but as time passes it does get easier. It's eleven years since my Pop passed away and I still think of him so so often.We were real close, probably cos my Mum passed away when I was very young.One important thing I think, is don't be afraid to reflect and remember him... Photographs, videos and even letters help and this is all part of the grieving process..Hope it all goes well, my condolences and take care of yourself.
Best wishes,
Mark
