Of all the special gifts in life however great or small, to have you as our Dad was the greatest gift of all. You taught me that words are quickly forgotten, but deeds are always remembered. If I could have imparted one thing it would be to help others, be a participant and not a watcher. Too pay it forward...
You live through me, everything I do and say, you were my teacher, my ambassador and my coach.
You were my hero. You were always there when I needed you, teaching me to navigate life with kindness. And if I felt something was impossible, you made me believe nothing is impossible and to just get on with it and to never be scared.
You really were the best, And even though you are not here, The time we had was blessed.
I wish I had just one more chance
To see that tender smile, To laugh with you again, my Dad, Just for a little while. So, this is not goodbye And this is not goodnight, Because you're still here by my side. Holding onto me so tight and I know you are watching over me. I love you always.
Your daughter Charlotte x x
