So my dad passed away on the 11th October the funeral is on Friday... this man was the most precious thing in my life and I miss him so much. I'm not good with words but this is my attempt at my eulogy for him (just hope I have the balls to read it out) and I thought I'd share it with you lovelies, any comments (nice ones) would be greatly appreciated.
To the greatest dad who ever lived I miss you more every day but I know you're still with me just in a different way. You taught me how to ride a bike and swim, I
remember sitting in the kitchen with you on Saturday evenings and you'd make me a hot chocolate even though you weren't the greatest at it because somehow you'd make
a skin form on top but I didn't mind whilst in the kitchen we'd listen to your music I always thought your taste in music was the worst but you spent hours and whole
weekends trying to convert me and it finally worked a bit when I was about 15 your hot chocolates may not have been great but you knew how to make a good fish finger
sandwich. I remember when we used to go on fields and play football but I'd never be able to score a goal because you'd make me laugh too much and one of the goal
keepers Kasper Schmeichel name would always make me laugh too you weren't too bad at football, old man. Everyone could always tell I'm your daughter because we had
the same sense of humour and we could laugh for ages over something that in reality wasn't even that funny you used to do a funny voice of someone you used to know
and I always thought it was the most hilarious impression ever. I remember in Year 9 because at the time in Science I was doing something about dinosaurs and you
convinced me that there was a dinosaur that went extinct because it bored it self to death and I asked my teacher about it and when I came home and told you about it
you were in absolute stitches I still hold you to that. I remember when we watched a documentary about Big-foot and there was a bit where quite evidently the so called
Big-foot was just a hairy man and he was walking through the woods and you said "its Big-foot walking home from the pub" I have no idea why I found that so funny but I
did. You was the one who introduced me to Doctor Who and at first I thought it was the worst idea for a show ever but now I love it and I love you for it too. You
were such a kind man with a big heart and a contagious laugh and in the words of The Clash go easy...step lightly...stay free.
