It is hard to believe, but it's been 2 years since my father-in-law's death.  It's only been in the last couple of months I've been able to say "death."  My husband, our daughter, and I loved him so much and miss him terribly.  The first year or so was very tough, but we have tried to keep living life to the fullest for our children, and we know that's what he would have wanted.  To mark the day Saturday, we went to the park with our children and enjoyed the beauty of life all around us.
