I didnt really get to know my dad untill i was about 14 years old, but in the time that i had with
him we became very close, he was such a great man with a heart of gold, he would do anything for
anyone, always there when you needed something, and i also realised just how much we were alike, in
so many ways,he loved John Wayne movies, and loved cartoons, he was a cowboy at heart and pften went
shooting, his house was full of fox furs and kangaroo skins, he loved his bundy rum and also mazipan
chocolate (i usually ate it all on him, he had a struggle in the last 5 years, he had mouth cancer,
but fought that, then he had to get his leg amputated due to no circulation, plus all his toes on
his other leg, yet that didnt stop him from learning to walk so he could walk me down the aisle
without his walking frame, then he had a heart attack and pulled through that was well, he was a
stuburn man but a gentle giant, he always said to me that he wasnt going to give anyone the
satisfaction of him dying, he wants to stay around to annoy everyone ha ha he was always making
jokes, then in may 2008 he called me to tell me that he had cancer in the stomach, i spent the next
3 weeks taking him to chemo and radiation therapy, but on the 4 june, the hospital called and said
he had been rushed to emergency, i raced to get there quick i live 20 min away, but when i got there
it was to late he had passed about 10 mins before i arrived, he died from septicemia from the chemo,
he did call me the night before and im so glad that i got to tell him i loved him his last words to
me were " i love you to", i hope he is having fun, being cheeky up in heaven.
love and miss you dad and im so happy we got to have the time we had together.
If heaven had a phone
I Cannot dial your Number,
I Can't get through to You,
I Called the Operator,
She did all that she could Do.
There is no code for Heaven,
I Cannot place the Call,
No Numbers left to Call,
I Reckon I've tried them All.
If Heaven had a Phone,
I'd Ring you Every Day,
If Heaven had a Phone,
There's things I want to Say.
To Tell you that I love You,
And Miss you Every Day,
How much I prayed to God,
That He could have let you Stay,
but heaven dont have a phone,
so in our hearts you will always stay.
lots of love theresa xxx

love to all xx
I'm writing this from heaven, where I dwell with God above.
Where there's no more tears or sadness, there's just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy because I am out of sight
Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night.
And I will stay beside you, every day, week and year
And when you're sad I'll still be there to wipe away your tears.
When you think of my life on earth and all those living years
Because your only human their bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry it does relieve the pain
Remember there wouldn't be flowers unless we first had rain.
I wish I could tell you of all that God has planned
But even if I were able to, you wouldn't understand.
When your going down the street and you've got me on your mind
I'm walking in your footsteps and only half a step behind.
And if you feel a gentle breeze or wind upon your face
Remember it's only me with a loving and soft embrace.
