Dear Dad,

I am writing to tell you how much I miss you and wish I was able to say Happy Father's Day, it is so hard to not being able to pick a phone up and hear your voice and personally say how much you are missed. I am going to visit Mum on Saturday and take her some books to read and catch up. She is wonderful and I love chatting and laughing with her. We have an amazing relationship and I am trying to get over every other month. I am so blessed to have her i my life and she is more my Mum than my natural mother. Anyone can be a mother but it takes someone extremely special to be a mum and friend.

I love you Dad and miss you deeply and want you to know how blessed i was and am to have such a wonderful Dad. Ja c xx

Dear Dad,

Today is the first year of your passing and it is as painful and heartbreaking as it was the day you left us all. I feel such an emptiness and sorrow thinking how much I miss you and want to tell you I love you so very much and always will. I am going to spend the day with Mum and keep her company and share some time together chatting and remembering you.

I hope you are now at peace and seeing all those who went before you. Love Jac xx😢

Dear Dad,

Today is Father's day and I am thinking of you so much as this is the first year i have not being able to send you a card or call you and it feels so very strange and sad. Yesterday I went and spent the day with Mum and we talked about you and had a few laughs when I tried to put DVD set i brought her on Television and it was a nightmare, my psychology degree is easier to do than trying to work the machine. We both laughed as we said Dad would have gone music we mucked the telly up, thankfully got the sky working up have up on dvd. Saw Sam and Lil, she is really growing up and is coming into berself, still as cheeky, it would cheer your heart and give your eyes a twinkle as it always did when she called in the room. Mum is doing well and as you expect as good and bad days but obviously misses you more than words can say!! Dad there is not a day goes bye when I don't think of you and yet i know that you are no longer suffering and that brings relief to me.

I send you all my love and say that you are greatly missed but I thank God that you are were and will always be my previous Dad, I love you .
