The LOVE of a Father

My father David Wykes

I lost my father when I was 10 years old.

Dedicating this photo and song to my Dad...for the "Affair of the Heart" Challenge.

All these years have passed now, but I am only
just realizing how much of a loss to me so young that
this has been, and how it impacts my life today.

A father who was loved so very much.

I lost my dad when I was 13. You know, at that age, you think your parents will never die. Cherish the memories and vow to take more photos of what is really important in life... those you love.

Very touching display Dawn. It must have been so sad to lose your father so young. And you have picked a very sad song too. It is a beautiful dedication to your dad xxx

A beautiful message Dawnie! I think it's SO wonderful that you are facing it, looking at it, and embracing it. Someday, a woman will come into your life who has that in her life and you will know how to walk her through it. You have a gift, compassion! Love you! xxxx Linda
