Can’t believe another year has past Dad, 8 years ago today. I’d still do anything to bring you back just one more time. I wonder what life would have been like if you hadn’t left us, if I still got to pop over and talk to you about rubbish, if the girls got to hear you read them stories and make them your Yorkshire puddings and mash potato! My heart will never heal and will always have a piece your shaped that’s missing. In a morbid way I can’t wait til I get to see you again, I really hope that’s true and I get to feel your hug just one more time. Although to be honest Joseph has done a great job of covering that one and he’s almost as good as yours now. I love you and miss you, love Emz x

Happy birthday Dad! Hope your having a great day up there. I’ll miss you forever! Come see us again soon, love to see you flying over us! The girls will always know you even though they didn’t get the pleasure of meeting you, always our grandad bird!

Can't believe it's been 4 years. Miss you so much. Hope you and mum are having a blast up there. Love you bruv xx

Love you Dad! 2 years already, where has the time gone? I'm getting old! I told you I'd look after her! We all miss you so much! Keep watching over us! X x

Happy Birthday Dad! I hope you have a great day up there! Missing you more and more each day, someone said it gets easier???? They were F-ing liars! Wish you were here to enjoy the celebration with us, we'll let off some fireworks in your honour. You were the best dad in the world, love you miss you forever! Until we meet again! X x p.s. aurora has started walking, I know she'd run to you if she could! Keep watching over us! Love you x x

A year has gone since you left us but I still miss you with all my heart . Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. You are my soul mate and I will miss you forever.I seem to have changed my name to Joseph but Nev works in strange ways.

I can't believe it's been a year since you went. I have been helping take care of your precious family as best I can and they are doing OK. We all miss you but remember you constantly, in sayings or memories. Sleep tight. Love you xxx

I miss you Dad, can't believe it's been a year since you were taken from us. I think about you everyday and it breaks my heart that Aurora will never get a grandad cuddle! I know you are watching over us though! Can't wait for the day I will see you again, I love you Dad, forever and always! X x x x x x x x
