Dad Ronald Pant Dad, I never thought I would ever have to write up something like this. Everyone keeps telling me it'll get easier...but I don't think it will. I just hope I can learn to deal with it better. It's so hard, because I'm trying to be strong, but who do I have to lean on? It used to be you...I'm not sure who it is now. You were the strong one; even when you were sick. I'm so glad to have been able to spend the time I did with you. Everyone always told me "You are definately your father's daughter." You know...because I'm stuborn, clumsy, have to have the last word, everything. I used to deny it, but you are what is the best part of me. I love you so much and I can't even express how much I miss you. I didn't even get to share some of the special times the others got to spend with you: having you walk me down the aisle, having my kids know what a special man you were...I'll never have those honors. The day you passed on, I felt my heart break...I'm really not even sure that I fully accept it yet...I'm not sure I ever will. I'll just have to continue to keep all of the great and wonderful memories that I have close to my heart. You were such a wonderful father; wonderful to everyone. You would give up everything to help all of us; you didn't care what it was. I am really going to miss you...I can't even begin to explain how much. You and mom gave me such a great life and taught me a lot. I will never forget all that you have done for me. I just hope you know how much I love you and how much you are missed. I will always be proud to be "my father's daughter". I love you so much and miss you forever. Tanya Dad Ronald C.
