Rebecca Dean: My dad's birthday is next week, so I've been thinking about him. Then today we sang one of the hymns from his funeral, so I ended up with tears running down my face and ducking out so nobody would notice. Spent some time with him in the memorial garden. Grief gotta grief, I guess.

I feel like churches/temples/etc are one of those places where you can safely cry without people getting really freaked out about it.

I honestly think everyone would have been very understanding, I just wanted to avoid the attention.

Fair.

It sounds like he was very loved and that’s a blessing.

Thank you, that's true. He was a good man and we were all blessed to have him in our lives.
