God dad I really miss you and you are on my mind thinking of everything we went through over the years, it hurts so bad that I didn't get to keep your flat but at the time I needed to sell it to pay your care fees and that was my 1st priority but it hurts so much knowing within months of me selling your flat it was sold again for nearly double what you got for it Gutted is an understatement I'm so sorry dad I honestly thought it was for the best but It hurts as if I still had your flat it would mean so much to me as it was full of memories of you and me, I grew up in that flat we had so many Christmas's and family time over the years and the markers of the kids heights near the front door meant so much to me as it was a constant reminder that the 3 C's were apart of your life, dad I hate that you didn't get to see Cory and Casey grow up and sometimes it feels like they never really got the chance to know you properly, Cory and Casey have got such vibrant personality's and I teachers always say how kind and helpful they are, dad you would be so proud of them I wish they could of got the chance to grow up with you in their lives. Dad you got to be a big part of Chloe's life from the day she was born and I remember how proud you were holding her and pushing her in her pram / pushchair and we would meet up on Friday mornings after you finished night shift and we'd go Westgate cafe for breakfast such happy memories. Chloe is such a strong minded young lady who knows what she wants in life and I truly believe she will achieve her ambitions n get to follow her dreams and dad you truly played a part in that as you inspired and got her interested in historical facts and stories and she is loving the information she is learning and she has such a thirst for historical knowledge it's just so wonderful to see her eyes glow up when she talks about it, dad she really is a very determined beautiful young lady who seems to have her head screwed on ( as you'd say ) 🥰 anyway just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you and miss you constantly, love you dad , Jane xxxx
