My Darling Daddy Has Passed Away


At 0510hrs this morning my beloved Daddy slipped away, from this world to the next. Now free of pain and able again to do everything he loved so much; things that had been so cruelly taken away from him gradually over the past 18 months or so.
I love you Daddy, I know that you have now started your last journey, to be re-united with your first true love, Mary, my Mummy.

Things have been so difficult between us, over the past 18 months but thank goodness, we were re-united at the begining of December and though not many words were said, things were understood.

I believe that you kept loving me through all these times. I had to otherwise I would not have survived and seeing you again on Saturday 6th December 2008, for the first time since 15th October 2007, was the most emotional day ever.

Until perhaps today. Though at the moment, I feel no emotion. Just a dull ache as my heart breaks in two.

You have probably never even heard of Garth Brooks or The Dance, but it is a beautiful piece of music, sung by a man with a fabulous voice.

Enjoy it Daddy, wherever you are.
