We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Subject: Re: Poem

I lost my Dad 28 years ago. Last night he must have been with me because as like many of my poems my fingers just start typing. Jack

Our Last Goodbye Till Our Next Hello

I sit by his side alone for days
He lay on his death bed as I prayed

I held his hand stroked his head
Knowing soon he would be dead

My father would soon be gone
I would without him be so alone

This great man only in my eyes
Now we say our goodbyes

I cried as he breathed his last
Remembering our grand past

Oh dad how I miss you so
But God called and you had to go

Someday we shall meet up there
Together in God’s sweet pure air
I'll see you wearing a bright halo
And I will greet you with our next hello
