(My very much loved Dad)
20th August 1926 - 11th April 2010
I am heartbroken and the pain feels unbearable.
I was given the gift of a father who always showed me he loved me and he told me often that he loved me. I have loved him my entire life... and will continue to do so. A true gentle man who put his family above all else and who taught me the value of love, patience, humour and forgiveness. He was loved by all who met him, including those who only got to know him during his final few weeks. I know that no one can live forever but my heart aches to the point of torture. I have never known torment such as this. I cannot cry or grieve, his loss is to much. I am sincerely honoured to be his daughter.
I have never spoken about my parents, at some point in the future I would like to introduce you to them and also to who I am, because of them. They were extraordinary people for their time, adventurers, intelligent, and living sadly in a time that placed restraints on them. They taught me to break those restraints and fly. I thank them both for their faith in me and for making me the person that I am xxxxx.
