If tears could build a stairway
and memories a lane
i'd climb right up to heaven
& bring you back again

On Father’s Day we take the time
To turn our thoughts to dad
Thank him for the home he gave
For all the things we had.
We think about the fleeting years
Too quickly, gone for good
It seems like only yesterday
I’d go back if I could.
A time when dad was always there
No matter what the weather
Always strong when things went wrong
He held our lives together.
He strived so hard from day to day
And never once complained
With steady hands, he worked the land
And kept the family name.
He taught us that hard work pays off
You reap just what you sow
He said that if you tend your crops
Your field will overflow.
My harvest has been bountiful
He taught me how to give
In his firm and steadfast way
He taught me how to live.
Dad dwells among the angels now
He left us much too soon
He glides across a golden field
Above the harvest moon.
I see him in the fields of grain
He rides upon the wind
And when my path is beaten down
He picks me up again.
If roses grow in heaven lord, then pick a bunch for me. Place them in my dad's arms and tell him they're from me. Tell him that I love and miss him, and when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for awhile. Love you always and miss you forever ...xxxxx

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.
Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love. xxxxxxxx
four loooooong years
hiii. again. jist meee. i cany believe its bn 4yrs (almost 2 the moment) sinse i got that dreaded phone call that i recall over & over again, I knpw this will be hard for some peeps 2 understand but sometimes i still cant believe that ur not here no more. I want 2 say "SORRY" for "ANYTHING" that iiv ever done 2 disappoint u in any way BUT i know that u wood tell me " uv never done owt 2 apologise for!!!!" thats if u were here. When ii think about u or look ay ur photos or watch ur dvd my heart feels soooo alone & empty ........
.................i feel angry "WHY ARE U NOT HERE WITH US??????" if it was decided who died by who was loved, iv no doubt in my mind that u wood b HERE, i know that for sure!!!!!!!
U wood (are) sooo proud i know of how ur 5 grandsons r growing in2 young men.....i know it & so does any1 else who knew u. i think iv said enough as u wood say. sooo il say no more EXCEPT that " i luv u Da & miss u more & more every day
xx teresa xx
ive not been here for a while, but i kwno my wee Da will know that i never stop thinking of him or wishing he was here with me. its hard to believe that 3yrs & 4 months has passed since i lost you.
Sometimes i think im really selfish cos i look at other people getting to enjoy thier Da' company & i think "its not fair!!!!!" i know that no matter what i say or do you will NEVER again sit across from me at a table in a cafe or PUB & just stare at me & smile just because im your daughter.
it would be your 59th birthday tomora, so i hope your getting all set for a wee party with my wee granny & granda. i'll have a beer & close my eyes & i know i will see you but when i open them you will be gone again. missing you always
your loving daughter
Teresa

my Dear wee Da
No words can ever describe how i feel everyday when i recall the day i got that dreaded call, sometimes i just sit & think "this cant b real.....can it??"
but then i remember being with you, going for a pint with you & aye i suppose remembering how much as i got older people would say "is this your girlfriend???" "huh tut tut" i would say but you would grin for the rest of the day lol i would give my right arm just to see that smile again xx
You would be so proud of your 5 grandsons as they grow into young men, you shouldnt be missing all this........you should be here. but god proved he only takes the best when he stole you from us
love forever
your loving daughter
