My Dad,
Today marks 12 years since you left me....not a day goes by that I don't miss you.
You weren't just my Daddy, you were my safe place, my biggest supporter, and you always made me feel that everything was ok, no matter what. You were an amazing man and father. Kind, strong, patient, intelligent and full of love in a way that made me feel it without you even having to say a word.
I'll always be your little girl. That will never change, no matter how much time passes
I still think about that moment so often - sitting there, holding your hand as you took your last breath. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, but also the most important. I'm so grateful I was there with you, that you weren't alone, and that you knew just how much you were loved.
You did get to meet your amazing grandchildren Shannon Webb and Jordan Webb and I’m so thankful for that. They were just teenagers when you passed… and now they’re 29 and almost 30. You’d be so proud of the people they’ve become, Dad. I wish you could see them now.
You never got to meet your great grandson Reuben - you would have absolutely adored him. He is a cheeky chappy and is extremely clever. I actually see some of your mannerisms in him. And my husband Perry Theo ...I wish so much that you could have met him. I know you would have liked him a lot. He is a really good man who has helped me through so much, including the grief of losing you.
I miss everything about you Dad, your voice, your whistling, your beautiful singing, your dry sense of humour and that cheeky giggle. I miss how I could ask you anything and you always knew the answer. You were full of knowledge about everything and anything, very random at times!
Twelve years later, I still miss you just as much. But I carry you with me every single day - In the way I think, the way I care and the love I give to people around me.
Love ypu Dad, always have, always will. Bye for now xxx
MISS MAXINE LEE
