We have known for 2 years now, sadly my dad wasnt going to be with us as long as we had hoped, but it still never prepares you for losing one of the most precious things in your life.
Growing up over the years I could see the magic ability my dad had, he had the power to make people adore him , and everything he touched always seemed to be overwhelming.
I honestly thought the day that I married Stephen (the son my dad never had), would have been the most proudest day of his life, but I was never prepared for when I gave him the one thing his whole universe centred on, and that was my baby boy Connor.
My dad was a proud and stubborn man, and even though this illness took away his body, it never took away his mind and soul. At the end my dad didnt want any doctors or nurses, and even though it will be one of the hardest things me and my mum ever done we lifted and laid him to his last, it was the biggest honour and privlege I will ever be given.
For anyone that know me, always a daddies girl, but watching my brave mum doing what she did for my dad, makes me eternally a mummies girl.
We may have lost a husband, a father, a papa, a son, and a brother but heaven has gained the brighest star in the sky.
Night Night dad eternally in all our thoughts, and your spirit will live on always through the most precious thing in your short life, your little power ranger Connor.

one year on
Cant believe its been a whole year since I seen you last, its went quick, but then I feel like I havent seen you for years, and its slowly killing me inside.
People say it, but I truely mean it you were the best dad that anyone could ever have wished for. You were my hero.... still are. I looked at you with Connor, and the way you were with him reminded me of the terrific childhood you and my mum gave me.
This is a huge hole in my heart that can never be filled, and would feel a lot better if i thought you could come back to me and let me hold you just one final time.
If you dont mind we arent coming to your garden today, going to leave it to the weekend, it would be too hard going to look at a piece of stone.
Connor is wearing his brightest top today just for you so you can see him from Heaven, he misses you sooooo much dad, just like us all.
Love once again, my heart is breaking writing this.
Love eternally,
Angela xxxxxx
Merry Christmas
Hi Dad,
Merry christmas dad, today was really hard, felt like there was something missing all day, and thats the truth and I knew I didnt need to question it, It was you, just thought about you all day, forever in my thoughts, your never far away.
I wish you would come back to me, just want to hold you.
Love Angela xxxx
Hi dad,
Miss you so much, been really feeling it off late, especially with Connor going to Nursery keeping thinking how much you would be so proud of him. He misses you too still when we say anything about Papa, he still says which papa.
I know you will know about my Grandpa and Uncle Dougie, please use your strength to keep them safe, dont think this family could cope with anymore heartache,my heart is already broken in two.
My silent tears at night are burning into me, cant getting images of you out of my head, and its cause me great pain. I had something to tell you a couple of weeks back about someone you knew that died, and just for that split second I thought you were still here, i even picked the phone up to call you, and then just remembered you were no longer with me in body, but im sure you are with me in soul.
Love you more than you will ever know.
Missing you eternally.
Angela xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Happy Fathers Day
Hi Dad,
Not exactly how I would wnat to say it, but never mind.
The pain is getting stronger, and harder every day.
Happy Father's Day.
You were the best dad in the whole world.
Luv eternally,
Angela xxxxx
DAD
Hi Dad,
Missing you more than I ever thought imaginable. Connor is asking after you quite a lot, just hope you are with him, im sure you are.
You are my first thought as soon as I wake and my last at night, and I really mean that you are in my thoughts every second of every day.
Just wish I could hear you for just one last time, I know you are on my wedding dvd, think about watching it all the time, but just cant bring myself to see you well, and fit and the way you should be, here with me.
Love you for infinity and beyond.
yours forever xxxx
without you
Hi dad,
Well thats Connors first week of Nursery nearly over, its had its ups and downs but you probably know that anyway.
They say times a healer but Im not too sure, seems to be getting harder and harder. Just would like to hear your voice, or touch you, even just smell you for one last time and it pains me terribly to think that will never happen again.
At night my silent tears fall to my pillow, and its funny I can feel you wiping them away, just wish you could take away the emptiness thats burned into me.
Love you more than life itself.
Love from Daddies girl xxxxxxxxxx

Way up in the clouds high above
Are beautiful angels full of love
They think of their loved ones everyday
And send them peace as they kneel to pray
They say a prayer for those below
Who deeply love them and miss them so
They vanish all their emptiness and all their fears
Mop their brows when they see the tears
Although their is a distance they are by our side
They have seen the emptiness and the tears cried
They are always near and always will be
Alive in our hearts today and for eternity.
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

It's me again from Heaven
With a message from above
Feel my spirit all around you
As I sprinkle you with love...
♥**********♥*************♥*************♥
I have watched you, as your tears flow
I have heard your silent screams
I know you sleep with visions
Of me visiting your dreams...
♥**********♥**************♥************♥
I have come and sat beside you
Placed my hands upon your face
Wiped away the many teardrop
I so wish I could erase...
♥**********♥**************♥************♥
I have watched you every day now
Seen such pain within your eyes
I just wish that there were some way
I could help you realise...
♥**********♥**************♥************♥
I am happy up in Heaven
In this peaceful loving place
Where I will be here waiting
To welcome you with my embrace...
♥**********♥**************♥************♥
You will join me here in Heaven
When your time comes you’ll see
Leave your Earthly cares behind you
Travel on to where you’re free...
♥**********♥**************♥************♥
I have heard you ask to go now
But there is more for you to do
I promise I'll be waiting
When your time on earth is through ...
