My kind, gorgeous, lovely Dad

I remember all the things you used to say,
The way you could wipe my tears away.
I remember all the times we shared,
And I knew you were the only person who cared.
I remember always looking up to you,
When I needed advice, I knew yours was true.
Now, when I need help, I don't know what to do;
As fate would have it, I'm living life without you.
I know it's not just me you left,
And the pain I feel I just can't confess.
Our family, our loved ones, all hurt too;
We now no what its like to be without you.

I Love You Dad and miss you so much!

I miss you grandad i can no longer live normally without you in my life please come back xx !!

Grandad was the best.
With his grey hair.
Always there.
And head of the chair.

You never ever missed a trick
Nothing ever got past you I knew.

You always made me smile
Even when I was sad.
You could make my sun shine.

Now your chair is empty
Im all alone
I miss you so much.
Why did life take you back?

You were my friend.
You always listened

Now you have gone
Nothing is the same.
Im so lonely.

But I love you still
I love you every single day.

My Special DAD!!!!!

You may have thought I didn't see,
Or that I hadn't heard,
Life lessons that you taught to me,
But I got every word.
Perhaps you thought I missed it all,
And that we'd grow apart,
But Dad, I picked up everything,
It's written on my heart.
Without you, Dad, I wouldn't be
The woman I am today;
You built a strong foundation
No one can take away.
I've grown up with your values,
And I'm very glad I did;
So here's to you, dear father,
From your forever grateful daughter. xxxxxxxx

You would be so proud!

Dad a year has now gone which is hard to believe but now i wanna do things that would have made you happy as it has been such a sh*t year in every way. Leah did her show last night and as per usual she did very well. You always said she would be on the stage so i will do everything I can to help her, it was such a shame you couldnt be there because the show was at the Orchard in Dartford (with a proper stage) Anyway miss you all the time but least when i think of you now I try to smile instead of cry. Love you loads and loads Dad xxxxxxxx

For the best Grandad ever xx

As the winds slowly start sweeping the days,
I look back on my life through a purple haze,
Thinking about those playgrounds, parks and friends,
In childlike gaze that never ends.
Running after each other in a game of catch,
Shall memories ever attach..
To that innocence in my youthful eyes,
Catching the ball to my Grandad's surprise.

I remember the first time i fell on that sand,
it was you who was there, who held my hand,
Convincing me to give that one more try,
While, knees skinned, I forgot to cry.
Just the fact that you were there,
Made me forget my worries and conquer that fear.
There was nothing i felt, i couln't conquer
With you by my side my confidence grew stronger.

The growing up years were kind of rough,
I was sure i wasen't too big or tough.
You taught me to defend myself when i was right,
even if that meant not backing down from a fight.
I learnt the hard way to stand,
Still, if i slipped, i found your hand.
You just gave me an inner strength,
with stubborn pride of equal length.

But then that line of fate was drawn,
As though i blinked and you were gone.
My eyes were blinded by a void inside,
I could not believe that you had died.
Finding this reality too hard to be true,
I realised that i could do nothing without you.

Please, grandad, today just hear my call,
I'm sorry that i dropped the ball.
My life is in a mess, my knees are skinned,
My emotions are now undisciplined.
I can't get up although i try,
Please don't be upset if now i cry.
Though i can't fight with what i can't see,
Please, Grandad, say you're still proud of me.

Love you Grandad more than words can say xxxxxxxx Leah xxxxxxxx
