Beardo by Dan Dougherty for August 13, 2017

That was really moving. Thanks Dan. See you in the funny pages :’)

Beautifully drawn strip. And a beautiful sentiment. You have lots of artistic talent. It will be fun to see what you do in the future.

Excellent ! Thank you.

And that’s the one t go on. Thank you, Sir.

If indeed this is the end, Dan, it literally could not have been better. Thanks for the ride in your stroller.

Nice one.

I and others will miss our daily dose of our Bearded Buddy! Best Wishes Dan!

Beautifully done — as always. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us for so long. Best wishes to you and your family.

Love it! Thank you!

Dan, That was fantastic!! It brought a tear or two. I will truly miss you and your work here!! xxxx

Sail on, best horizons to come.

Nice. You will be missed.

As a fellow Beardo, I’ll miss you awesomely (you being the awesome part)…

Nice strip. Good luck in the future.

Beautiful

That needs a print

That is beautiful, I have a daughter and understand…..even if being used as a metaphor.

When you said the strip was ending, I thought it was sad we wouldn’t be able to see the little one grow up, but you took care of that. Beautiful strip! Best of luck in the future. And I hope it goes as pictured.

I’ll miss you good luck

Hope you’re happy, you just made a grown man cry. Best wishes to you, and thanks for everything.

Wonderfully done, I’m going to miss seeing you daily, good luck in the future and thanks for sharing with us.

Amen.

Great strip that touched my heart. I’ve experienced the tag line more than once. My baby girl is 34 today, herself with a three week old daughter. My older daughter will be 36 soon with two daughters + one son. I just want to hold all of them a little longer.

Thank you, Dan. You will be missed around here, but it is great to see you are not letting that stop you from soaring even higher. All the best to you and your family.

Thank you for an outstanding ending. Will miss your strip. Best wishes in your new endeavors.

It made me cry, comics can be like that. Fantastic! I saved this one. After you leave will you let us know what’s happening? I haven’t thought o check if you are on FaceBook, Thanks for the years!

Wonderful!! Beautiful and wonderful. Thank you.

… fantastic finish… though I didnt comment here often, I read Beardo every day. Dan, thanks for all of your good work. Good luck on everything in the future….

Thank you for sharing your journey. Happy trails to you…

Thanks, Dan.

I thought comics were supposed to make me laugh. Not cry. Very true and touching. Thank you for Beardo, Dan. Many blessings to you and that precious family.

Very, very sweet!

Thank you very much. It was a fun ride. Definitely worth the “E” ticket.

Nicely done. Bon voyage.

Awww!!!

Whatever happens, may the beard stay strong! Good luck!

Good strip to end with. Good luck Dan

Talk about getting a lump in my throat…

I’m gonna miss this every day!

Awesome way to close out the strip for now. I cling to hope Beardo and Co. will be back. Best of everything to you in your new ventures.

I am without words.thanks, Dan.

Beautiful, Dan ! Thanks for all the fun and best wishes to you and your family!

Got a tear. So true. Only found Beardo this year and love it. I look like him and felt and experienced many of the same things. Thank you for Beardo.

Dan, I’m having a hard time typing this as I can’t see the keyboard thru my tears…

I leave you with this sentiment…..

Turn around, and she is a young girl, going out of the door…

Awww! She looks like her mother! I’ll miss you all — hope for reruns at the very least.

So true… I held my 24 month old extra long tonight because of your strip. I’m sad to see Beardo come to an end… so many good clippings (pun intended) to remember! Good luck in your new projects and years ahead.

What a great way to end a fantastic strip. And it’s true – it goes by in a flash. Thanks for everything!

I’m at the middle panel of the penultimate row – and, you know, it’s never really over (just don’t pass up any chance to share those “moments” like the school plays with them, because THOSE you can never get back). But even now my kids are still my kids; it’s just that somewhere around 16 they also turned into people, and became my equals and friends as well. And even my grandkids are growing up SO fast, but I get to do it all over again – even the nappies (diapers). Loving it.

This is one of the most amazing final comics I’ve ever read, I just wish I hadn’t waited until now to read through Beardo, this comic was amazing.
