Daddy's Little Girl

A lot has changed in my life since I got back from my summer adventure in Europe. This summer in literally a run down the stars my life changed. My dad, the person that never failed me and was always there passed away. This man, this truly unbelievable man was gone.

Life moved so fast for a week after that. I do not think I got a chance to just sit, pause, and truly grasp what had really happened. One thing that I was sure of was that I wanted to speak at his funeral. I wanted to honor my daddy, this incredible life that he lived. He left a legacy not just for me or my brother, but for his colleagues, his friends, and anyone that he simply smiled at because what you saw was what you got. And you got a lot with just a smile from Jack Woodrow Jones.

Even though the thought of not having my daddy around anymore is still so surreal to me, I know that he is there watching me from above. He is my guardian angel and I will always be his little girl. So go wrap your arms around your dad and tell him that you love him because you just never know...
