A year ago today my step dad Gary Cofer passed away after a long battle with prostate cancer. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. As always you never appreciate something until it is gone. I am thankful that he is no longer suffering from extreme pain but I am sad that I don't get to see him and talk to him. I am also bitterly disappointed in his sons and how his affairs ended up being handled. Gary had such a long and painful battle with cancer but at the end it all seemed to go very quickly. I regret not speaking to him closer to his passing. He was a WONDERFUL step father and never treated me any differently then he treated his very own kids. It makes me sad to think that Riley will not know him. I am thankful that he was a part of our lives even for the short 7 years that it was. I know he is in a better place now but I still miss him.

This made me get tears! I knew it was coming up, but today is the day. So sad! I also miss him, he was such an awesome guy and I am glad that I got to know him! Hope you and your mom are having ok days. Love you!
Thanks Myriah,
That was a wonderful tribute to a great guy. I am sure he is looking down smiling that he is gone but never forgotten. Do not look back and have regrets. He knew you loved him. He loved you like his own daughter. I know he is up there with Creal at his side, just the way it always was.
Love always, Mom
