Dad's Funeral Tribute

Created by sharon 9 years ago
If I could write a story, it would be the greatest ever told
Off a kind and loving dad, Who had a heart of gold
He was a dad who was so special, and who was loved so very much
And brought so much happiness, to the many hearts he touched

He brought us into this world, so thankful that we are
The most loving caring dad, who was our superstar
Special moments in my life, he would always be there
Getting married to Gary, giving me away, he could not bare
His little girl so grown up, and her life was moving on
The messy bedroom was soon not there, that had now all gone

Next was the news of your going to be a granddad
Overjoyed with the news, he wondered if it was a lad
Keira came along a lad didn’t matter any more
As he held her in his arms, teardrops fell to the floor

Another time was Christmas, when we all bought him fishing gear
We was all worried, was it right, we did really fear
Was shocked with his response, as the tears rolled down his face
He was overwhelmed, with the thought we’d put in place
Christmas times were very special all the family with each other
After years of being separated even included our mother
I cannot describe the first year it begun
But our hearts were melting at last we could all have fun
But this is the time when its going to be most hard
Our family broken no dad no card
But we’ll raise a glass to the years weve had
An empty chair, place made up, we’ll miss you dad

Pregnant I fell another grandson he had
Nicknamed him Damian because he was so bad
But deep down inside he loved him with all his heart
Like all of his family he played a special part
He knew we were always there for him when he needed us most
Cuddles, kisses advice not just a letter through the post
You never said I’m leaving, you never said goodbye
You were gone before we knew it, and only god knows why
A million times we’ve needed you, a million times we’ve cried
If love alone could have saved you, you would have never died

We often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep
And take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon our cheek

Remembering you is easy, we do it everyday
But missing you is heartache, that never goes away
Where sending a dove to heaven, with a parcel on it wings
Be careful when you open it, its full of beautiful things
Inside a million kisses, wrapped up in a million hugs
To say how much we miss you, And to send you all our love
We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain
Goodnight godbless our darling Dad until we meet again
