If you had passed my Dad in the street you wouldn't have noticed him, unless you were lucky enough for him to have held a door open for you. He was an unassuming person, a quiet person to those who didn't know the real John Cox. Those of us who did know him were privileged to be in his company. He was a loving Husband, Father, Grandad, Cricket Grandad, Son, Brother, Uncle and friend. He was immensely proud of all his family, especially his 'boys' with whom he spent many a day just being 'Grandad', it still pains me that he won't see them grow up to be men that he'd be proud of. He was a gentleman, a true gentleman, totally comitted to decency and manners. He was passionately British and fought bravely for his country in the Korean War. I miss him
I Loveyou, I miss you.
Dad,
This day, four years ago, I thought my heart would break with the pain of losing you. But I have learnt that no matter how hard it feels life has to go on, even when I feel like giving up. I can not put into words how much I miss your presence, I just hold on to the thought that you are now at peace and not in pain anymore. I Love you dad, always have and always will, all my love princess xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
For a father
Dad
Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.
What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.
What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.
Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.
Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.
Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.
Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.
Today, Jesus, as You are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love.
Judy Burnette
My Pa
I feel you in the morning
When at first I awake
Your thought is with me
With each decision I make
You'd been around forever
Since the first breath I took
Now I have to go on alone
But for love, I need not look
Cause by what you bestowed
In our short time together
Will last in my heart
Forever and ever
Although you've left
And now walk above
I'm never alone
I'm wrapped in your love
Enjoy now your long waited reward
Feel peace that your love continues on
What was taught to me, will be taught to mine
Cause you live on in me even after you've gone
