Gone

He left at 3:09 a.m. on July 21, 2010. I suppose 84 years is a good, long life for someone, but none of us wanted to let him go. My mother kept saying, "I didn't think this was going to happen so soon." I remember thinking that it was the end of an era. As a person, he simply was no more. The person I called Dad and sometimes even Daddy had "left the building." But the worst part, the very saddest, was the words that were left unsaid.
