My father, George Ronald Zack, passed away on Saturday night. He was 83.
As you'd expect, this has brought swirls of emotions with the recollections of good and bad times, and realizing I'll never talk to him again. He lived a full life, mixed with great triumphs, joys, losses and tragedies. His life, like most of ours, was complicated, easy and difficult and hard to describe in a simple obituary or eulogy. My relationship with him, also unsurprisingly, was similar.
I'll look to write here in several entries as a way to collect my thoughts, what I learned from him, and come to terms with his passing.
Rest easy now Pop,
So sorry for your loss, GZ. I went through the same in December. For me, the experience sucks, spurs much recollection and reflection and then settles into a steady state of reflexive grief. Hope your trip through the cycle is meaningful and, eventually, peaceful.
