Yesterday I found out my father died last September and none of his five halfwit adult brats had the decency to tell me he was ill, let alone, that he was gone. My father and I were close and that would have made him furious.
I managed to find the obit and the notice at the funeral home. Smiled because instead of flowers, he asked for donations to DU -- Ducks Unlimited. lol
My dad could charm the socks off a snake. He's about the most social person I ever met. He loved the art of the deal and he loved the outdoors. For all that, he had a hyper sensitivity when it came to other people that must have been hard to live with. He had life long depression which always seemed to me a way to defend against that sensitivity. I don't know if he ever graduated from college but his interests were wide ranging and active. In our infrequent visits, we'd find a good restaurant with a decent bar and hunker down to shoot the breeze for hours. That and long rides. He used to take me up and down back roads no matter what part of the country we happened to be in.
My boys and I went to visit him out in Missouri about 12 years ago. His wife hated it but we didn't stay with them. We had him for a couple of days and it was really good for him to see those tall guys that each look like him in a different way. I look more like Dad than any of the others, he said it was like looking in a mirror.
I didn't even meet him until I was seven but we took to each other instantly. His brother is out here in the East Bay. Have to call him today. I'm really hating time and distance today. He lived so far away, being his daughter was like being a visitor in my own life. And this time thing, well, it's just got to stop.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family Beth.

Condolences - Its sad that the death occurred, and even moreso to just find out about it now.

Yep. That's not cool at all. My condolences as well.

My father and I were close.... and it only took 9 months to learn that he had passed away?????????
My condolences.

For real. I'm not trying to grave dance, but how close were you if he passed away 9 months ago and you're just now finding out about it?

I don't doubt that she did lose her father, but much of this makes no sense.
My condolences.

Sad, I guess. Doubly so, because in a democrat family, this counts as a close relationship.
Don't forget, this is Beth Ferrari.

Condolences to the family.

No it doesn't - but I chose to overlook that as there are other threads to laugh at Stupid Beth's , erm... stupidity.

...but she degraded the entire thread:

Apparently her siblings stayed in touch with her father. She's the one that didn't. That isn't close. That's her bringing over a sad story in an attempt to trash someone else, who had also lost their father.

That's what I couldn't figure out either. I didn't see my dad much when I was growing up but we keep in touch now. When you're a kid you don't have a lot of choice in the matter but when you're an adult you make the choice. I'm sorry she found out so late but maybe if their close relationship meant they called each other, even as infrequently as every few months, she would've known much sooner.

Six out of six. There's obviously a dominant gene at work in poor, stupid Beth's close knit family.

Let us not forget that she is, above all else, a liar. "Condolences" to her, anyway.

I may be late to the party here, but what are the chances that Beth's five siblings were of the "other" political persuasion, and didn't want her to spout off her tripe and fecal matter at the father's wake/funeral?
-
I'm a dad of daughters. This thread makes me sad; there's a lot of information missing here. Condolences.

Yeah, I picked up on that too. A lot of DUmmies are ostracized from their families. You can read the loneliness every holiday.

Sad situation in life with the lack of contact and my sympathies for her loss.

I do offer my condolences, however.
Ya know what the best thing in the world is? Having your 3 1/2-year-old daughter look you in the eyes and say, "I love you, Daddy." I hear that a lot. I don't ever want to have my daughter say, "My dad's a POS." I'm tough on her at times, but loving.

I digress.
Her father belonged to DU = gun owner
Gun owner = rethug
Rethug = reason why she didn't find out for 9 months.

This leads me to believe that they were like their father politically hence the backhand slap.
My condolences to the five halfwit adult brats.
