Love and Loss

Hello friends.  I'm sorry that I've been away from my blog for longer than I planned.  A lot has happened since my last post.  During my last visit, I was remembering our dog Lucky.  What you didn't know was that I was also taking a walk down memory lane for another reason; Papa was ill and in the hospital.

On Wednesday, we lost him.  And my heart shattered into a million little pieces.

Today, my life is a little less smiley.  The world lost another kind soul, a good man and a shining light.  My family lost an incredible father, grandfather, great-grandfather and a loving husband.  I lost a big part of my heart.  What remains is a hole that will never again be filled in the same way.

I'm not able to talk about it much yet.  The wound is too fresh; the cut too deep.  What I will say is that "Smilin' Mylen" might not be here with us anymore, but I know he'll always be watching over us.  Papa, I love you so much and I'll miss you every single second of everyday for the rest of my life.  °o°

      Thank you Tristan. Papa was one in a million. Disney will never ever be the same without him, but I'm so thankful we have so many wonderful memories with him. <3

    One can just feel the love you had for your grandfather. I am sure that love will be with you through these trying days.

      Thank you. He was very special to me and my entire family. It's been a difficult few days, but I know he'd want us to try and be strong.
