Dad, you have been gone 12 months, its been the hardest 12 months of my life since mom died 20 years ago this month. My saving grace has been the birth of Leo, who I think was sent to us for this reason. I love you and miss you so much, but I know you are with mom and that is where you want to be.

Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday. Missing you is the heartache that never goes away.

In Loving memory on Fathers Day.
DAD
These words are just for you
and come with love to say
We think about you constantly and miss you more and more each day.
To lose you left us devastated, but when we feel the pain.
We only have to close our eyes and you're with us once again.
A special smile, a special face,
A special dad we can't replace.
Memories are a gift to treasure, and ours of you will last forever.
I love and miss you so much Dad. xxxx

I DIDNT KNOW THAT MORNING THE PAIN THE DAY WOULD BRING,WHEN A GOLDEN HEART STOPPED BEATING & I COULDNT DO A THING. NO WORDS CAN HEAL THE HEARTACHE OR STOP A SILENT TEAR, OR TAKE AWAY THE MEMORIES OF THE DAD I LOVE SO DEAR. YOUR RESTING PLACE I VISIT, THE FLOWERS I PLACE WITH CARE. BUT NOTHING COMPARES TO THE PAIN I FEEL WHEN I TURN AND LEAVE YOU THERE.
FOR MY DAD ON FATHERS DAY WHO I MISS SO MUCH.

DAD - When I Lost You.

I wish I could see you one more time, come walking through the door. But I know that is impossible I will hear your voice no more. I know you can feel my tears and you don't want me to cry. Yet my heart is broken because I can't understand why someone so precious had to die.
I pray that God will give me strength and somehow get me through, as I struggle with this heartache that came when I lost you. XXXX

So yesterday we said goodbye to you Grandad. It was a lovely send off, exactly what you deserved. I will never forget what you did for me Grandad not just lately but everything. I will miss your extremely tight hugs and your smiles when i came to see you. I know why you are gone Grandad it doesnt make easier that I wont see you. These last few weeks not seeing you has been so strange and its hitting home that I wont again. Rest in peace dearest Grandad, until we meet again. love Kerry x x x

Grandad, you were our mirror to the future that dad never had the chance to live. We saw in you what we would have seen had we been given the chance.
We will miss all of the little things that made you ours... The endless spilt cups of coffee, toes poking out of the holes in your socks, Jameson's at Christmas, birthday cards with our names spelt in all kinds of weird and wonderful ways. Each and every quirk which made you so special. 
You're courage is something to be admired and we are proud to call you our grandad.




Give dad a hug from all of us. 
Goodnight grandad xxx
