I'm so sorry for your loss. This is beautiful writing about your dad, I can relate to so much of having a complicated father. I'm keeping you and your family in my thoughts xx
What a brilliant tribute. I love reading about people’s dads and their relationships with them, much as I obsessively write about my dad who died about eight years ago now.
I’m sure that your dad would have loved your honesty and the warmth that you use when speaking about him. Maybe he would have shed one of those rare tears, if he thought you weren’t looking.
I'm so sorry Deb. I met your parents a long time ago, and know a lot of things you've outlined here. I remember his dancing skills at various parties. I know how hard it is to lose a father and how confusing one's feelings are when it happens. I'm so sorry that the last few days in particular have been so hard for all of you. Sending lot of love to you, your sister and mum. XXX
I so feel for you, our relationship with our parents can sometimes be so complicated, but they are still our parents and we miss them so much when they leave us.
Sending warmth and light. So sorry to hear your news.
Thanks so much, Paul. Appreciated.
