Six years ago today I lost my amazing father to cancer. He was the most special man in the world especially to me. He raised my brother and I single handedly from the time we were toddlers and he was there for us every day of our lives with a wealth of unconditional love and support. He was our father, our Rabbi, our teacher and our best friend in the world. For the last 13 years of his life he lived with my brother and me which was the greatest gift in the world to us. From the day he was diagnosed to the day he died we, my whole tiny family, never left his side. When he died, at home, he died in all of our arms and that was the last gift he gave all of us. I miss him every day and I am who I am today because of him. Thank you Daddy. Rabbi Martin Sofer. The greatest man I have ever known. MAY THE LORD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU, MAY THE LORD CAUSE HIS COUNTENANCE TO SHINE UPON YOU AND BE GRACIOUS UNTO YOU, MAY THE LORD LIFT UPON YOU THE LIGHT OF HIS COUNTENANCE AND GRANT YOU PEACE. @rosabelrosalindkurth @msidney @david.b.sofer @sbookstaver #imissyoudaddy #bestfatherever p.s. My amazing daughter Rosabel painted this picture of him!

He was our father, our rabbi, our teacher, and our best friend in the world.

“For the last 13 years of his life,” she continued, “he lived with my brother and me which was the greatest gift in the world to us.

Back in February of this year, Sofer shared an old photo of her and her father that looks like it was taken around the time of her run as Lois on GENERAL HOSPITAL in the mid-’90s. “Me and my daddy,” she posted. “I miss him so much!”
