Thinking of you today dad,
You were much more then a father to me,
You were my best mate, a guide, an educator and an influencer.
I try my best not to dwell on your absence, but remember all that you have shared with me and to be grateful for my time with you,
You invested more into me in a few years then most would in a lifetime,
You have had such a positive impact on moulding me to the person I am today and I hope to do you proud in the future, although physically gone you will never leave us, your always here with me, the memories, your wisdom,
Whenever I “fluff it” or have a “dooohhhh” moment I can see you slapping your forehead and laughing at me,
Followed by “it’s okay lou, we will sort it”
And a little mutter “heeeeeevvaannn” as he’d look at my handy work haha,
Today will mark a day of remembrance rather then morning, today will be a day of celebration, appreciation for a guide, an educator an influencer, and most of all a father.
Miss you pal 🥃🍺
