Happy Heavenly Father’s Day to all the dads who are no longer with us but continue to live on in our hearts and memories. Today, as we honor and celebrate the fathers who have passed away, let us reflect on the profound impact they had on our lives and the valuable lessons they taught us.
My dad Tom Briglovich was the first man I ever loved, and his presence in my life was invaluable. He was not just a father to me, but also a teacher, a leader, mentor, and a friend. He showed me what a man of integrity looked like, his kindness, and strength and love were everything. He taught me the importance of hard work, perseverance, and never giving up on my dreams. Especially when life throws you curve balls or when others try to keep you down.
One of the most remarkable qualities about my dad was his ability to listen. He always made me feel heard, validated, and understood. Whether I had a problem, a success to celebrate, or simply needed someone to talk to, he was there for me. His unwavering support and encouragement gave me the confidence to believe in myself and pursue my passions.
He was an amazing grandfather. And he loved his granddaughter Tiffany who’s Nick name was Muffy with every breath he had. She was the apple of his eye.
My dad also set a high bar for how men should treat others. He treated everyone with respect, compassion, and empathy. He never hesitated to lend a helping hand to those in need, and his generosity knew no bounds. From volunteering at local charities to being a shoulder to lean on for friends and family, he exemplified what it means to be selfless and caring.
I was blessed to have 2 amazing parents.
Thank you Lord.
This Father’s Day, as we remember and honor our dads who are no longer with us, let us cherish the memories we shared and the lessons they imparted. Let us strive to live our lives in a way that would make them proud. Let us carry their love, kindness, and wisdom in our hearts as we navigate through life.
To all the dads in heaven, thank you for your love, guidance, and everlasting impact on our lives. Though you may not be physically present, your spirit lives on within us. We honor you not just today, but every day, as we strive to be the best versions of ourselves.
Happy Heavenly Father’s Day to my dad and to all the dads who are watching over us from above. Your presence is deeply missed, but your love and legacy will forever endure.
