Sail, I'm so sorry for your loss. He sounds like a wonderful person, and I'm so glad you had him for a father.
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

Sail, I am sorry for your loss. Peace to you and yours.
Msbelle, that has to be really difficult. I'm sorry.
My daughter had a bad dream at 4:00 am, so I have been answering emails. I can't wait to find out what I wrote/promised/insulted in my semi-awake state!

I am so sorry for your loss, Sail. May the wonderful memories of your father bring you and your family peace and comfort. Holding you and yours in my heart.

This a million times. I have to admit there have been a number of times when I thought to myself, "son in a few years you are going to realize what an asshole you were back in the day". As my mom said often, this too shall pass.
{{Windsparrow}} It will get easier. I am more than confident that your new employee doesn't think poorly of you because your desire to do the right thing is no doubt as apparent to her as it is to us.
