That's pretty awesome. I like a tattoo with some deep meaning. I haven't lost my father, but I lost my grandparents who were like parents to me. I understand how loss feels. You have my sympathy even if it is late. I like tattoos but never have gotten one because I always wanted it to mean something and not just do it because my friends got them. I'm getting my first ink next week. It would've be nice to share the experience with somebody and to show it off to them, but like yours, it has meaning of deep pain and deep love.
