On 1st march it will be a year since my dad dies-we haven't yet sorted his ashes out. I have told my siblings that we are going to scatter them on Sunday. I feel like to sort it will bring closure.
My daughter, who was close to my dad, is upset that the decision is so sudden but I have tried to sort it out and it feels like the decision has been always left to me. I mostly feel that I still want to do it as it will never get sorted but I also feel torn that it is so rushed.
I know where I am going to do it and it is a place that had significance to my dad but I wondered what other things people do to mark this event? My dad was not a good, loving father and so there is a lot of pain for us and this event wont be easy. However, I do want to mark it in some way-give it some closure.
