Dear Dad, wherever you may be I want you to always continue to know how loved you are by us all here and everywhere. You were and still are a light in many of our lives, especially mine. We all truly treasure you. I still can’t believe this. I’ve lost a part of me. Thank you for being an incredible father, for everything you have done and everything that you will do, now alongside me in my heart and energy…as we promised we would go through life together no matter what. I am such a proud daughter. I’m going to continue to make you proud and fulfil your wishes. I love you and miss you forever.
