One year ago today my father died peacefully, but unexpectedly in his sleep. Its been a long, yet short year if you know what I mean. I really miss him. He was my closest male friend, advisor and mentor; and there is never a day that goes pass that I don’t think of him or hanker with the need to ask him a question.

Life can be cruel, and I know that he would loved to have seen and held his new grand-daughter – he loved children, and children loved him.

Dad I miss you. I love you.
