Thomas Frank!
Man – Still Missing my dad! So many Great Pictures of him and the life he lived. I walked away from the funeral and all of the hoopla just thinking what a good man he was. He didn’t have much materially but he just loved people. He always served in the church and always took care of his family and all 100 of our friends. One of the things that stuck with me was a 30ish year old girl that showed up with pizza for the family because she had called the RS and wanted to help. Someone asked who she was and who she was here for – meaning – which Robertson kid is she the same age as and hung out with… – the answer was that she was here for Dad. Dad was her bishop and loved her and treated her kindly and reached out to her. I loved that.
A couple days after the funeral we all got these pictures on our group me messages from “dad” when Mom started up his phone. Looks like he was trying to send us this last picture the day he passed away. It was weird to see a new picture of him after he was already gone. One of the hardest parts about losing dad was that we couldn’t be with him. These Covid restrictions have been crazy and sad. We just wanted to talk to him and encourage him and even just to be able to SEE how he was doing or SEE what he needed. I felt so out of touch with him. He only talked on the phone once or twice a day so we didn’t get to see him or hear him. Dad was such a people person – I’m sorry that he had to die without his people.
