During the game which I obviously was not watching my father passed away. It was unexpected but I knew it was coming if that makes sense.
My father actually built Lawrence Taylor's restaurant. I have an autographed football from the Super Bowl team. He wasn't the biggest sports fan as all he was more of a hunter and woodworking type but we went to some games together.
Really going to miss him.
I presume you are talking about LTs in Brielle, NJ?
Hang in there
Of course, sorry for your loss.
Think on the good times.
My dad died 20 years ago and I still have conversations with him in my head.
You will miss your dad but he lives inside you.
didnt really realize how much mine effected my personality till after he was gone.
sometimes i feel like he is coming out of me
I miss Dad every day.
Really sorry for your loss. All the best.

How old was your Dad ?
I got to spend a lot of quality time with my Dad in his later years. I would go over to his place once a week. He would always pour us shots of sambuca or something stronger, and we'd raise our glass in the Italian Toast.
"Cent Anni" -- May you live a hundred years.
Dad lived to be 99 and 2 months. I give him the Extra Credit for living thru the Great Depression and fighting in World War II.
Cent Anni.
It’s always hard.
Live your life by making him proud of everything you do.
It’s all so sad.

This was in East Rutherford. Pretty sure it's Biggie's now.

I remember that restaurant. With the larger than life LT bustin' thru the wall at the front entrance.
Again, my deepest condolences. Revel in the good times you had with your Dad....67 is way too young.

Best advice I’ve ever gotten: allow yourself to feel exactly what you feel. With loss, most people fuck themselves up comparing themselves to others, trying to feel something you don’t, or trying to NOT feel something you do. There’s no “normal” feelings, you’re not “supposed to” feel anything, and there’s not a correct timeline for how long it should take to be okay. Don’t judge yourself, just be strong for those who need you to be (kids, your mom) and then surround yourself with people who won’t judge you either, and you can just be honest with about where you’re at.
I do my best to try to be the parts of my father that I loved the most, so in some ways, he lives on.
My heart goes out to you and yours. Keep your head up man.
