Missing my dear Dad so much today. He died over a year ago rather suddenly after being poorly for just 2 weeks. He was such a great Dad and Grandad and he was cherished by us all more then he could ever know. I feel guilty a lot that I didn't give Dad a kiss the last time I saw him, the cardiologist and his team had just come in to speak to him about more tests and were gathered around the top of his bed so I couldn't get near him at that time. Maybe I should have stayed but Dad said 'I know you're busy with the kids etc so you can head off now' and I said 'ok bye Dad, see you tomorrow' and then I waved to him purely expecting to see him the next day but unfortunately he died suddenly early the following morning. I really should have waited for the team to be finished and told him I loved him one more time in case he didn't hear me the last time I said it. There's other things I wished I said too and things I wished I thanked him more for over the years. Dad loved Father's Day and getting little pressies, we usually went out for a family lunch or dinner on the day itself. He was always known to us his children as 'Daddy' until we we became teenagers when 'Dad' sounded more cool but today he's Daddy in my mind. Missing you so much Daddy, Happy Father's Day, wherever you are xx

Hi all Flowers
