Dear Dad,
As the sun rises on yet another day, I can only wish you were still here with us, to share our memories not yet established and to see us all blossom and grow. But you will see us prosper, you will see us mature, for I know you are with us in spirit watching over all your family observing our ways and but wishing you could guide and advise us.
 
There are countless things I wish I had said to you before you suddenly departed things that one day I will say, emotions that one day I will show, and
 
As  I go to take another breathe, the question of what you are doing this very second arises, whether it is the same breathe that you are inhaling or whether you are using your extraordinary way of words to entertain elsewhere, far from here but close to the Lord.
 
And despite the flaws all men possess,  as I sincerely reflect upon who you were to me, You were a great man, a man of significant intelligence who -close up- had integrity, stamina and a loving heart.
 
I truely thank the King of kings for the moments spent with you,   the influence you had in my latter years and the love you expressed through your exceedingly secure hugs. 

And although we'll surely miss you so, the love you shared we'll certainly show, your legacy will not be left to roam aimlessly.

Love Georgie, your second-born and last born
