My dad would have been 65 today.
He really was an amazing guy.
He was brilliant and could make everyone laugh.
But, he passed away from a rare form of cancer when he was only 32.
He never got to see this:
My wedding
or this,
My brother’s wedding
or these,
Six Grandkids
But I’ve always felt like he was there, watching over us.
Just like he said he would
when I was six.
So,
Happy Birthday, daddy.
I love you.
Stopping from SITS! He sounds like a special man who lives on in your heart.
Oh, thinking of you…
Of course he saw all of those things. He was standing quietly right there beside you.
wow, what a handsome dad. and what a great tribute.
I've been thinking about him so much lately. Probably from going through old pictures and our birthdays are a week apart. There are times when I would like to write about him and I think I could never convey the real picture of who he was. I miss him deeply. The last two weeks of his life that I was able to spend with him was a precious gift to me. I will always remember his strength and love of life.
He adored you Shell and would be so very proud of you now. I know he is with you all.
Happy Birthday to your Daddy in heaven. I am so sorry for your loss. That must have been very hard. He was a handsome man. I can tell he was very loved.
