CELEBRATING MY DAD ~ Reflecting
💫💔🙏
Celebrating a life well lived… with food, wine, laughter and stories…just the way Dad would’ve wanted it.
Here’s to you, Dad. 🍷🍷💜🙏🫶🥰xx
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 4 years today…
🕊️ Thursday 20 May, 2021 at 5.16am 🕊️
my darling Dad, Teddy (Ted), peacefully left this earthly world.
As I held his hand, with a gentle smile on his face,
he took his final breath…
a 92.5-year life so beautifully and fully lived. He loved life!🥰✨
♥️ ♥️ ♥️
My Dad was one of life’s true gentlemen:
faithful, kind, humble, non-judgemental, belly-laugh funny, a natural mentor who helped many,
and a man who truly loved…
💛 Life
🌏 Adventure
✈️ Planes and flying
🍷 A tipple of red (or a beer!)
🫶 His faith, friends and family
I remember asking him, just a week before he passed:
“Dad, what are the most important things in life?”
Without hesitation, he said:
BE KIND
HELP PEOPLE
BE NON-JUDGEMENTAL
Timeless wisdom.
It’s how he lived. It’s how I try to live. 💛
I miss his smile
His calm voice (Best voice…still in my head)!
His wisdom
His stories
His big warm hugs
And oh… those epic belly laughs that filled the room! 😂🙃🤣
So many funny, happy, beautiful memories.
They keep me smiling… even through a sadness.
Dad showed me that the most beautiful things in life
are not things at all –
they’re adventures, moments, feelings, people, and love.
✨❤️
I’m forever grateful you were my Dad.
Forever in my heart.
Forever my Angel Teddy! 😇💫
RIP Dad
🙏💛🌟
Love you always xx
😘🤗🌹🍷✨
