Dear Dad, you are so very missed.
On our kitchen counter sits a photo of us preparing breakfast for our loved ones, David and Mom.
David and I often start our mornings looking at this picture and shedding
a tear, in missing you, but I for one,
take comfort in that you are now
in the company of my Dad,
enjoying a drink and joining my Mum in song as you had done on our wedding day, creating a memory that David and I will treasure forever!
…so…
“Dear Dad,
don’t be sad for leaving us,
go gently and as the clouds disperse we’ll feel the sunshine of your smile,
knowing all the while, that you are watching us, protecting us from all that lies ahead…
with Missy two and Esher there,
your love, your joy is felt down here…
…so rest dear Dad and do not fear, you’re always close, your always near!”
