I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland

You live on through me, Dad, in all the ways that truly matter. I miss you more each day, and cherish you always. Remembering my hero today - the man who taught this little boy how to be brave, work hard and find joy in the simple things. You shaped me in ways you'll never fully know, Dad
