Karyn, I'm so very sorry for the loss you're experiencing with the passing of your Dad, I've been there. I want to tell you that it does get easier -- you will so think of him every day and the tears will come. But one day (as God says - In the morning) you will think of him and remember all those wonderful moments (and those funny stories you've told me over the years) and smile and even laugh when you remember him. In the meantime, rest in knowing that God is your source and strength and you can call on him even in the middle of the night. To the Stringfellow family, I love you all. Be blessed.

Cheryl,
I know we have not spoken in a while and I never had the privilege to meet your father but I know what a loving and genuine person you are so I know he had to be just the same. I am so sorry for your loss. I am thinking of you and your family.
