Parents

[ashetlandpony]

My father would have been 90 on Tuesday. It's hard to believe he's been gone 20 years now. My mother lived on 5 years after Dad died, but mentally, she was never the same after his death. In a way, I lost them both the day my father succumbed to heart disease...

I miss my parents more than anything in the world. I would trade everything I own, and part with every penny to my name for the chance to have them back with me again for just one single day...
