Yep my dads been gone for 27 years now do miss him but time goes on. Enjoy the time while you still can.
I just called my father, thank you @LTG, and had a great long talk. Then I found out we celebrate fathers day on another date in Sweden. 
Happy fathers day to all!
I am going to have a great day with my wife and children and think about my dad who has been gone for 11 years.
Seeing the photographs above just made me look in a photo box that I have close to my computer and sort through some old photographs, some of my kids and some of my mom & dad. Definitely a day to reflect.
Enjoy the day.
My dad's been gone for over 10 years now, I'm spending today picking up a pinball 
(and seeing if my daughters remember to give me a call 
)
Another who's dad has been gone many years. Photo posted to start the thread makes me think of old photo's tucked away - and a bunch of "pictures" in my head.
All enjoy the day.
Yes, there will come a day when you wish you could talk to Dad just one more time.
My Niece past away at a very young age on Feb. 20, 1998
I have a gathering for her every February on the Saturday closest to the 20th.
In 2002, my Dad past on Feb. 23, the day of the gathering. That wasn't an easy
Party to go through..
IMG_0295 (resized).JPGI’ve had some unique and satisfying jobs, but being a dad has been the most fun and rewarding. Happy Father’s Day to all dads.
Happy Fathers day to all you Dad's out there! Best thing that ever happened to me was becoming a Father. Going to see my Dad later today, the man I respect more than anyone on this earth!

Loss my dad in July 2011 and my young nephew at 21 yrs three months prior. I do miss them both. I do wish I could have one more talk with my dad. The sting never goes away. Every day of the year I try to make it a Fathers Day for me and my 12 yr old son. These are hard times for all and take comfort with ones around you.
Happy Father’s Day to all you pinball dads out there!
After all these years I just noticed something in the picture.
Behind my Father is an A frame swing set with slide and teeter totter. The red arrow is pointing to where the teeter totter should be hanging from on two poles.
I could get that thing going back and forth so the whole A frame rocked and I could go over the fence in the back ground.
One day I had that thing wound out. All of a sudden my Mother in the house heard no noise. That always worried her. She came running. One of the bolts holding one of the poles broke and the pole nailed me right between the eyes and knocked me out.
After that it regularly got new bolts, grease, and inspected.
This picture must have been taken right after it happened, because I don't remember being without out it more than a day. Dad must have got right on fixing it.
Dads can fix anything.

An old pool playing Buddy just left. Had a few. Kicked back. I enjoy reading
memorable times..
Quoted from CrazyLevi:Luv ya dad! Thanks for joining forces with jack to help me with those cuff links!
