Like Goose, I accepted the deaths of my parents as the logical, inevitable conclusion of the life cycle. They had lived long, good lives, and both were suffering (cancer, strokes). I don't miss them, per se, but I'm reminded of them every day as I use my dad's tools and his guns, and see my mom's handiwork in a thousand things around my home. Whatever I have become, I am a product of their genes, their guidance and their example. My values are their values.
Unlike many of you, because of numerous career moves I was not physically close to my parents for most of my adult life. Because of that their absence did not create such a large empty void as others who lived and worked near their parents.
I do still hold a deep affection for my parents. My deepest regret is that I never told my parents how much I appreciate their many sacrifices for me, nor tell them how sorry I am for the many times and ways I hurt them by being a self-centered, unappreciative jerk. If only I could have 15 minutes with them again just to tell them so.
