Well Im not one to beat around the bush or wax poetic, but it really sucks to lose a loved one. This morning at 12 16 I lost my dad. It's possibly the hardest thing I've dealt with in my 23 years and right now I just have no idea what to do. We've made the arrangements for the services and viewings but that's not the hard stuff. The hard stuff is all the name changes to be made. I now have to help my mom switch everything over to her name, I have to help handle insurance forms. I don't even know where to start. What really sucks in all this is that I just lost my paternal grandmother 14 months ago. So while I do have my frequent bursts of participation, I may be semi scarce around these parts over the next two weeks. Just wanted to put that out there though as I just feel the urge to vent my emotions.
 
I really feel for your loss and you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayer.
 
Sean, my best friend lost his father about 3 years ago and he had to help his mom do all the same legal crap you are. Let me know if you have any questions and I'll try to find answers for you.
 
I hope the pain decreases as each day passes, right now its o.k. to mourn, you're human. Life is funny, when you least expect it the world can come to a hault and you'd never know it came.

Take care man and I pray all the best to you and your family. I don't know what I would do if I lost my Mom or Dad. Life is all about experiences, God be with your father.

Memnoch, I'm so sorry to hear the news of your fathers passing. I'm currently going through it with my girlfriends father who passed away last Wednesday at 54 years of age. Been at her fathers hospital bedside since day one with her (went through 5 weeks in the ICU) and we're still going through the same thing (name changes, writing thank you notes for flowers & gift baskets, & dealing with insurance companies who make the process worse than what it should really be). It's going to be a long road and it will stay with you for awhile. My prayers are with you and your family. Stay strong and we'll see you back on the boards soon.
 
Horrible news to hear man, something this big is never easy to handle... I hope that you and yours are able to get through this tough time. We are all here for you, if you need someone to talk to.

I'm sorry for your loss. I've been there with my dad. The pain will slowly go and you'll remember mostly the good things. :)

As for the paperwork, it's not all that hard and alot of it doesn't have to be done right away. Just take the time for yourselves right now. Don't overwhelm yourselves. If you have a lawyer handling the will, he can help you with the other important things too.

Best wishes for you and your family.
 
I am really sorry to hear this. My dad is not only my dad but one of my best friends. I'd be devistated to lose him. I can't imagine how you must feel. Again, i am sory for your loss.
 
Sorry for your loss. I know personally how bad it feels to lose a father. It isn't easy. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
 
I'm so sorry to hear this. Take care of yourself during this difficult time. All my best to you and your family.

Sorry to hear that Sean. You have a long road ahead of you, none of it will be easy.

Aside from the tremendous emotional pain you feel, the logistical nightmare ahead is the shats! My Mom had a HELL of a time with a bunch of the legal aspects of the whole ordeal. Its a bit ridiculous all the legal crap one has to go through, its a shame actually.

My sincere best wishes to you and your family!

Sorry to hear that man. I lost my mother a little over a year ago, and it hasn't gotten any easier. Just hand in there....
 
dude, my condolences, i lost a loved one very recently, not quite my father but none the less, i wouldnt wish loss on anyone, stay strong, at least you have a supporting online community if you need to talk about anything,

stay strong,

all the best

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't say that I know how you feel, because I don't. I have my father, and all my closest family members are still with me. I can't even begin to imagine how you feel. Just know that you have your family and friends behind you, as well as all of us from Sideshow and Rebelscum.

Take care.
