He always had a smile in his face and a twinkle in his eye. He will be forever missed and always in our hearts. Dad, You never said I’m leaving. You never said goodbye. You were gone before I knew it And only God knew why. A million times I needed you. A million times I cried. If love alone could have saved you , you never would have died. In life I loved you dearly, In death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place , that no one could ever fill. It broke my heart to lose you, but you didn’t go alone. For part of me went with you , the day God took you home. Author Unknown
