First Fathers day without my dad! He passed in Sept and I think of him every day.  So, I understand completely

Actually my real Father was never in my life and my step father was very abusive to my Mom and us.

So, I miss my Dad-in-law very much. I met his daughter as a dating friend when I was 17 years old in 1979, we married 3 years later. She was 18 and I was 20.  He and I done a lot together and he took me under his wing when I was a very young man. 

We lost him in 2011 at 81 yrs old and I miss him everyday.

Thanks for starting this thread Brett, I bet they're more stories out there

I lost my dad in 2004 which was around the time I acquired my '66 Hertz.  Fortunately I was able to take him on a ride before he passed.  He fought so hard for so many years after surviving a brain aneurysm in the early 80's.  I can can still hear my wife telling him post-op that he had to come through this so that he could see his first grandchild.  He did and actually lived for about 20 years after that.  My dad actually taught me practically everything I know about cars.  The most important thing was to be patient.  If something wasn't going quite right just walk away from it (if possible) and come back later.  Your perspective and approach will have most likely changed which will result in successful completion of the task at hand.  I can still hear him say "success smiles upon us" after we finally finished that 3spd to 4spd swap in my '67 Mustang.
