This is the tribute my daughter read at her father’s funeral. Even after 18 months it makes me weep.
I want to say thank you to my father for just a few of the things that he gave me:
Thank you for your humour
Thank you for your love of music
Thank you for your interest in people
And for your love of learning.
Thank you for dancing with me
Thank you for letting me sit on your shoulders
Thank you for arguing about politics on the way to school
And for letting me cut your hair.
Thank you for being so brave.
Thank you for working so hard
Thank you for being so proud of me
