It is an honor and a privilege each time I am invited to facilitate groups for the National Fallen Firefighter memorials and retreats♥️🖤
Participants and coordinators often are thanking me for my time, but it is I that thanks them for the opportunity to honor my father and his love of being a 👨🏽🚒
Participation is one of the many ways that I remember and continue to show love to my father‘s life.
I feel it as I am pulling in to whatever location is hosting the memorials and retreats; the goosebumps, the watery eyes and the pride as I say “Dad, I hope you can see me!”
It feels good to give back to these family members who have had a loved one die in the line of duty, and to be trusted with their stories, their vulnerability and their grief❤️🩹
What are the ways that you honor your loved ones🪽🦋
There are no rules to this honoring.
The creative opportunities to remember and celebrate our loved ones lives are endless, and I am so grateful for finding this way to continue loving my
dad 🚒😇
