Welcome to my blog! My name is Anne and I am a mother and wife who has a passion to document my father’s story. He died, suddenly, when I was 15 and he continues, every day, to live on in my memory. I write this for myself, my children, and anyone who I can touch with a story that I hope to one day publish, if simply for the memories it will hold for the future generations of my family. I hope you will find it honest, heartfelt, and encouraging. From my heart to yours, thank you for your support and I hope it will touch you in a personal way. He must live on; he is my hero.
I began writing about my father last year and then summer came and my garden took my time. I want to share, little by little, a paragraph or two each week. This will hopefully keep me on track and continuing to write over the winter months. I am using this as an online journal to document my writing. I do this for myself, as a form of self expression and a way to share my father’s story with my family and friends. I welcome others to read as well, hoping it will touch you in a special way. I believe the world needs as much kindness, honesty, and genuineness as it can get. I hope my words can inspire and heal!
My Father's Story from his youngest daughter's heart and memory one paragraph at a time....(Read from the bottom up to read the full story) 
I’m sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine how hard it must be some days rehashing your treasured memories of your father. I think it’s great that you can keep his memory alive and give your children the chance to know him in a way that they may not have been able too. Lots of love. I look forward to reading your story.
