a special bond

My dad was not doing well health wise. 
He was determined to make it to Abe's farewell.
It was the last place he went, besides the hospital.
He was a very big believer in Abe and kept telling me how special Abe is.
I remember when Abe got his patriarchal blessing, he was a little disappointed because he felt like it was basically sounded like a Sunday school lesson and not super personal. 
My dad invited him over and gave him a grandpa's blessing because my dad felt so strongly that he wanted Abe to feel how important he is.
They had a special bond.
Before my dad died, one of the last things he was concerned bout was making sure Abe had some money in his post mission account.  He wanted Abe to succeed and was thinking about him right up until the end.
I have felt my dad watching over Abe.
