    I have dipped in to this thread without knowing quite what to say. Although we are both members here and have never had a conversation. I have been very aware of the run up to the wedding and your desire for dad to be there.I am truly otm that he achieved this and I am sure that is down to his character and love for you that drove him on to be there. I am sad at your loss, although so pleased that both your desire and his of being at your wedding day was fulfilled....and that you have great images of the two of you from the day to keep with you for life.

    I am so sorry to hear of your dad passing away, you both look so happy in your wedding pics. What i can gather from other messages on here, he had been poorly leading up to your wedding, he must have been an amazingly strong willed man and loved you very much.

    My thoughts are with you and your family

    Im so sorry to hear your news, yet so pleased that he got to share your wedding with you.

    I was sent this when my grandad passed away in june. I thought i would share it with you.

    You can shed tears that I have gone

    Or you can smile because I have lived.

    You can close your eyes and pray that I’ll come back

    Or you can open your eyes and see that I have left

    Your heart can be empty because you can’t see me

    Or you can be full of the love that we shared

    You can turn your back on tomorrow and live for yesterday

    Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday

    You can remember me and only that I have gone

    Or you can cherish my memory and let it live on.

    You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back

    Or you can do what I’d want;

    Smile, open your eyes, love - and go on.

    Thinking of you at this time. x
