Your always in my heart...Happy Fathers Day
Happy Fathers Day Papa
Friday night was well good. I really had a good time and felt like a princess. I really wanted to have a photo with you.
Mum rang Nannie today like normal on Fathers Day to make sure she's ok. Nannie misses you being around so does everyone.
I miss going to Nannies and seeing you and just being around you.
I have your pipe and it's in my room near me. I remember you always having a pipe near you. I also have a photo of you and Uncle Maurice, you both look alike. At my party Uncle Maurice looked the spitting image of you it really shook me up a bit. I miss you every day.
You will always be in my heart, mind, and soul and although we can't see you we know you're here.
I really wish you was here Papa but i know if you was we'd have to go through all the heartache again of losing you.
I hope you're really proud of us all Papa which i'm sure you are.
I miss you and will love you always.
Love you
Love Sarah Ann xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
